Bad Cough.. :(

Well, I've got this awful cough, and a nasty case of insomnia to go with it.
Thankfully I quit smoking cigarettes two days ago..
I wish I could come up with a way to get the coughing to subside.. (No cough medicine and no money!)
Anyone have any ideas?

 

It isn't the cough that carries you off. It's the coffin they carry you off in.

 

minty gum

water

sleep

fresh air

steam

 

heres a home made thing, dont know if you already have the ingredients..

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1 Tablespoon honey
1 Tablespoon apple cider vinegar
2 Tablespoons water
Mix and take by the teaspoon.

 

Thanks everyone.. I'm going to try and go to sleep...

 

You can make a cup o' tea. use about 1/2 a lemon squeezed into your glass, 2-3 tablespoons of honey (More or less to taste) and a pinch of cayenne pepper to flush out the mucus. You probablygot sick because you quit smoking. It does something to you immune system. It happened to me too, and a few other people I know. It will pass.
