Needs evaluation: This is a pattern that suggests an unrecognized mild form of asthma (cough variant) or other chronic disease. Effective management requires a proper evaluation. Cough is a natural protective response &amp; should not be suppressed without understanding any triggering process.

Question 2

Allergies?: It is possible that this mucous is the result of allergies. It may also be a sign of copd, especially if you are a smoker or exposed to secondhand smoke on a constant basis. Another possibility is an infection though not likely if this is going on for a long time. Recommend a visit to your physician. In the meanwhile drinking plenty of water may reduce the thickness.

Question 8

good natural remedies to get rid of acne?

Accepted Answer

No: This is the 21st century and you owe it to yourself to use remedies that actually work. Your physician can manage acne using compounds that are gifts from mother nature -- benzoyl peroxide, the retinoic acid derivatives, isotretinoin, and the wonderful antibiotics made by natural micro-organisms. Acne is a chronic, serious disease and requires real rx.

Question 9

what are some natural remedies that can get rid of acne?

Accepted Answer

Not many: Unfortunately there are not alot of natural things for acne but decreasing your sugar intake, dairy intake can help since they fuel inflammation.  Increasing water can help.  Ancient cultures have used yogurt and tumeric as a natural mask for hydration and brightening  your best bet is good skin care products that can help exfoliate your skin: Alpha hydroxys and retin-a.

Question 10

how to get rid of acne and acne saves and black heads for good? natural remedies only please. thank you

Accepted Answer

Forgive my frankness: Whoever has told you that "natural is good, everything else is bad" has done you a disservice. Vitamins / supplements work for other entities but are only placebos here. Benzoyl peroxide is nature's own oxygen within a naturally-occurring molecule. Topical Clindamycin and systemic antibiotics are both nature's gifts, and the oral contraceptive pill may clear a young woman. Be savvy & good luck.
