I've had a cough for about two weeks, already drank cough syrup but this won't go away. I basically want to know natural remedies that have taken your cough away.
Thanks!

The cough gets worse when I wake up and when I go to bed at night. I don't think it is an infection because my throat doesn't hurt and I'm not allergic to my pillows, or anything else in the bedroom (not even my husband).
Do you think homeopathic pills will work?

Hot tea with lemon works wonderfully! And if you fill your sink with HOT water, put your face as close to the water as possible, without burning yourself, and put a towel over your head and just take slow deep breaths of that hot steam. Man, I tell ya, it loosens up all that phlegm and mucus in your lungs. The main thing is getting it loosened up and coughing it out. Good old fashioned chicken noodle soup is comforting as well.... hope you feel better!

Well, the way to naturally stop a cough is to let your immune system cells to destroy the cough virus. Depending on the strength of the cough, it could be a very short or very long time. Eventually, it will have to go because your immune system is almost always stronger than a minuscule cough virus.

Sometimes a persistent cough will last longer for 2 weeks. So there's only ways to calm it rather than try to make it go away. I recommend just cough drops whenever you feel the need to cough.
