Herbal Remedies for Cronic Cough
Coughs are a symptom of respiratory tract involvement in any disease or imbalance. They can accompany colds, flu, and throat, bronchial, or lung irritation or more serious conditions such as bronchitis, pneumonia, whooping cough, or even lung cancer. If the cough continues for more than a few weeks, it is best to consult a qualified health (or disease) practitioner.
Herbal treatments include respiratory soothing herbs, expectorants, antitussives (cough sedatives), and the antimicrobial, garlic.
