The cause of the cough is important to determine. A COVID-19 test is recommended. If you have asthma, follow your medication plan. Nasal saline will help to reduce post nasal drip and cough. A natural cough syrup without codeine may be used judiciously. Watch for signs of shortness of breath and please follow up with your physician. Stay rested and well hydrated.
