Cough: Reach out for medical evaluation if sxs have lasted more than a couple of months. In the meantime, consider a natural remedy. Mix hot water, 1 tsp. lemon juice & 1 tsp. honey in a mug, then add more lemon juice or honey to taste, if desired. Sip the mixture slowly and inhale the steam from the hot liquid to help reduce congestion in the chest.
