Mgt: Warm liquids and honey may help. Monitor your temperature and please see a physician if the cough lingers more than 2 weeks.

Possibilities...: If you are coughing up sputum, the best intervention is to stay hydrated, keeping the secretions thin and easy to cough up. If you have a dry cough, it may be due to bronchospasm and a bronchodilator inhaler may help so see your doctor. Resting your vocal cords as much as possible until the cough is better is also important. An over the counter throat spray will help the sore throat. Good luck!!
