Chronic Cough: See your doctor... Quick solutions can stop your cough almost overnight - why suffer. In addition they can diagnose and treat other, more chronic conditions that cause coughing... Allergies, pneumonia, sinus infections, asthma, gerd, tb, etc.

See dr-bad/chronic: Hydrate well. Consider using a warm air vaporizer. Mix several teaspoons of honey into herbal tea with a squeeze of lemon juice. Or make tea with 2 tsp of marshmallow root bark per 1cup of hot water (steep in a covered pot for at least 5 minutes). Drink several times a day or as needed to relieve coughing. See a physician if your cough is not resolving, difficulty breathing or temp > 104.
