Question 5

i have a cough for days now, what should i do?

Accepted Answer

Common-see below: The vast majority of coughs are caused by viruses and often last 2-6 weeks; antibiotics won't help these. They go away on their own but  herbs like Pellargoinium sidoides (sold as Umcka) help- see http://tinyurl.com/ztoepsy
Homeopathy often helps- see https://www.drhomeo.com/bronchitis/homeopathic-remedies-for-bronchitis/ 
If you have wheezing or feel short of breath then I advise you see a Dr.

Stubborn cough?: If you have recently had a viral illness like influenza, a stubborn cough is common. Some people with asthma cough rather than wheeze, and some people with heartburn (gastro-esophageal reflux or GERD) will complain of stubborn cough. Cough drops, tea with honey may help in the meantime. LGromkoMD
