Throat infection - little yellow cough

[Guest guest]

Hi Friends,

 

I have been eating ginger / honey /shitopaladi / licorice etc in small

quantities for last 2-3 days but not getting relief from this dry cough.

 

earlier i use to take Amoxycillin antibiotics when i was in india and

the throat infection used to go away. however i am in newyork now and

in america everything becomes difficult for an asian.

 

please advice me as to how i can get cure for throat infection using

home available supplements - i have access to neem / turmeric /

manjistha / shitopaladi / brahmi / coriander / mint / etc at home.

 

any advice would be appreciated.

 

regards

Jay

Please try a cup of warm milk with half a teaspoon of

turmeric powder before going to sleep.

Also when ever you eat anything or even some snack,

always chew a small piece of cucumber, particularly

the pale colour small size cucumbers that we get in

Mumbai or Pune. If not possible, then try any good

variety of cucumber. That disinfects the mouth and

helps keep the throat clean and clear.

I hope one of these two things or even both should

work for you as they do for me even at 75 years of age

 

But please don't combine too many cures

simultaneously.

Wishing you speedy recovery

Dear Jay,

Please stop taking ginger. You can continue Sitipaladi or else take Talisadi

Churnam with abhrak bhasma with honey thrice a day. Please take some plain water

steam as well. Hopefully you should be getting better in 2-3 doses itself.

Jay,

 

First and foremost, it is necessary to know that yellow / green sputum indicated

to some infection in the breathing system. It could be in the sinus, back of

nose or wind-pipe, may be all the three sites may be involved.

Dry cough may also point towards some allergic element in your problem. Please

do not experiment with various herbs unless you know the focus of your cough.

Get X-ray of chest and complete blood count which will give the status of white

blood cells indicative of infection and / or allergy. Present your reports and

you will get better advice and guidance from group collegues.

Till the time use clove powder and powdered sugar in equal proportions - one

teaspoon of mixture three to four times a day, drink hot water. Avoid all

aerated cold drinks, daily head-bath and if possible air-conditioned cool

environs. If you happen to smoke cigarettes, stop smoking. Avoid all sorts of

deo sprays, room freshners and insecticide sprays.
