Good morning Ne33. I've had a lot of improvement with coughing drinking lemon water. It helps cuz it numbs the throat. I also take robitussin dm, and use my nasal spray. The nasal spray helps a great deal because a lot of times sinus drain can be The cause of coughing. I drink hot tea too. I have someone that is an herbalist. I get spikenard tincture, no cough tea and fresh elderberry syrup. But before you take any supplements or teas you should check with your Dr. Not everyone can take certain things. So research and talk with them. I'd like to know how your doing.

This is an old wives remedy but has worked for me. When you get ready to go to bed put Vicks salve on the bottom of your feet and a pair of socks. Don't try to walk without the socks.

Hi Lea, Jensmom has given you good recommendations. I've also tried drinking pineapple juice & it's helping with my coughing & congestion. It contains an enzyme that helps with this. I hope & pray you get some relief soon. Pls keep us posted.

Hi Ne33. I also have a very irritating cough, especially when I lay flat. I'm up few times through the night with it. I drink water to ease it. Bought lozenges and a mucus relief cough syrup. That helps. Hope you're keeping well. 🌹
