Possibilities...: This could be bronchitis of either viral or bacterial origin. See your doctor because if it is due to bacteria, you may need antibiotics. If it is due to virus, it will run its course over a few days to week.

Warm soup.: Traditionally it's always been chicken soup, but the key is really the warmth of the soup that soothes the throat, eases the cough and thins out the congestion. So, no vichyssiose.
