Cough Remedies

Here are a few home remedies for cough:

1. Mix half a teaspoon of lemon juice with the same amount of honey and have this twice a day. Honey helps cure itchiness by adding moisture to the throat passage.

2. Make a paste of almonds (soaked overnight) with sugar and butter. Consuming this can help curing dry cough.

3. Salwater gargling is an effective way to remove bacteria at the back of your throat and it could help with cough.

4. Crush onions to extract their juice, mix it with honey and consume this two to three times a day. This acts as an excellent cough syrup.

5. Cut a lemon slice and fill it with black pepper powder and salt. Suck on this can help reduce cough.


Please note that cough may often be a symptom rather than the disease itself. So if it persists for a long duration it is always safer to consult your doctor. The above remedies will just provide relief from cough and will not treat the underlying ailment if any.

The cough in common cold is generally hacking and can be moist because of congestion in the chest. The cough during flu is usually dry and hacking, and can last till all other symptoms of flu havegone.
