Cough: Dry Cough and Wet Cough, what to take, what to do?

Types of Coughs:

Antitussive cough mixture should be used when you have a dry cough.
And if you have wet cough use expectorant cough medicine.

What it does?

Coughing is one of the ways of protecting the respiratory system of the body by clearing it of irritants and secretions (harmful substances).

If Prolonged:

Cough's can turn into bronchitis, so don't let it go on too long.

Natural Remedies:

What I've gathered from the site below is i.e. the natural remedies includes,
HONEY
BLACK PEPPER
TURMERIC POWER
MILK
RASPBERRIES
LEMON
GINGER
WARM WATER


AVOID ANY OF THE ABOVE, IF:

Know what your body wants, and beware what it says, it doesn't feel okay! with it (while trying any of the above - for example, if you take lemon (and other citrus fruits) and the irritation in throat increases then don't take lemon --- Your body responsive system should never be ignored ---)

Apart from that, don't

Smoke (Irritates your throat more), Avoid polluted places, clean your hands (wash them more than usual), take note of what makes you feel good --- do that --- like if you gargle with cold water and it works for you do that, but generally warm water is good for you in cough especially.
