Severe Cough and Its Cure
A cough is a sudden, often repetitive, spasmodic contraction of the thoracic cavity, resulting in violent release of air from the lungs, and usually accompanied by a distinctive sound. Coughs in children are common, and usually accompany many of the normal childhood illnesses. A cough that continues for several days, or increases in severity, should be immediately checked by a physician to rule out other diseases. It is a symptom of an underlying disease or other medical problem that most people assume are due to lung problems. There are several different causes of cough not related to the lungs. Gastroesophogeal reflux, allergies, post nasal drip and certain medications are common causes of cough.
The coughing (infant) is natural to rid stuff out of our lungs and throat. The mucus in their nose can be wiped or sucked out using an infant mucus remover.
Depends on the origin. Bronchial coughs can be treated effectively with Levaquin. See your doctor to determine the best treatment based on your situation.
The only way to deal with a cold is by treating the symptoms. Try drinking some hot tea with lemon if you don't want to use OTC products. If the cough persists, you will eventually either have to go with something OTC, such as Robitussin, or see your doctor as it may be a bacterial infection.
To stop nighttime coughing in a child (or adult as we found out personally), put Vicks Vaporub generously on the bottom of the feet at bedtime, then cover with socks. Even persistent, heavy, deep coughing will stop in about 5 minutes and stay stopped for many, many hours of relief.
Have honey in a hot drink before bed time.To relieve fits of coughing due to dryness in the throat, suck a few pepper corns.
Take 0.5 pounds (250 gms) of sweet apples daily for a week to cure cough.
Soak almonds overnight and remove their skin. Make a paste of the soaked almonds with little butter and sugar. This is very useful for dry cough.
Mix 8 - 10 tablespoons of coconut milk with 1 tablespoon poppy seeds and 1 tablespoon of pure honey. Take this every night before going to bed.
Boil some water add a small piece of ginger let it simmer for 5 mins take of the heat. In a cup add some honey and lemon juice now mix the ginger water in there take this twice a day. Steam 2 unpeeled tangerines with 30 grams rock sugar to relieve coughs with a yellowish mucous discharge. Eat the tangerines at bedtime.
In one cup of warm milk, add a pinch of turmeric powder and drink twice a day.
In one cup of warm milk, add 2 3 strands of saffron and drink twice a day.
Deep breathe in front of an open window. This has multiple benefits. Exhaling vigorously rids the body of waste gases and deep inhalation saturates the lungs with oxygen.
Chop an onion finely, put it with a tablespoon of clear honey in a screw-top jar and leave overnight. In the morning, drinking a teaspoonful of the juice produced will give relief to cough.
Garlic-and-onion chicken soup is also an effective remedy for cough .

Severe allergies?
For the past few months I’ve been waking up with my eyes binded shut with what seems to be clumps of puss. I quite literally have to pry my eyes open, from there the clumps stick to my eye lashes.
There are no living additions to my home that could cause allergies. Nothing has changed. Where are these allergies coming from?
And all day I feel a slight ball of some sort under neath my eye lid. I close my eye, roll it, and it goes away for about 3 seconds.
I have contact lenses, but never wear them. I chose to wear my glasses. I am sure to take off my make up before I go to bed.
After thinking of all the plausible causes of this daily morning allergy, I’m clueless. What else should I be looking for?
I just went through this with one person about “dust mites” a big contributor to allergies.
They live in your bedding, you can’t see them so don’t go looking for them, they’re there.
Try washing your bedding every three days at least, they eat your sloughed off skin and the excrement is what your allergic to possibly.
Vacuum the mattresses both of them and clean the entire area good. Try it and see what happens, clean the dust off the curtains etc, maybe the dust from these, etc. under the ed, etc.
Dust mites do not like light and fresh air, they abhor light, I can’t tell you to leave the bed unmade but, it will help to see if it works for some relief.
Severe Allergies????
My husband has the worst allergies ever. we cant have an inside animals, he cannot be around any smoke, he is on like 4 or 5 perscriptions, he cant hardly breath through his nose w/o this meds…i want to know a cure for this so we can have a life!
The only cure I know of is sitting in the garage with the car running until he falls asleep
How do people with severe allergies who live in a bubble breathe?
I do not mean to offend anyone with this question, I am really curious because I ave no clue as to how they can survive!
A person with severe allergies to people or something so bad that they have to live in a bubble–how do they get their air? A tank of air, like you’d use for swimming? Do you have to open it every few hours to refill it with air? Is there a filter? What? I do not understand. Please do enlighten me.
people live in bubbles?

What are some good recipes for somebody with severe allergies?
My boyfriend has severe nut,egg, wheat, pea and lentil allergies (if he eats them he’ll be dead in a minute!)
I want to cook him a meal, but i want to try something new because we eat the same things often.
Has anybody got any recipe ideas for us?
Thanks x
Not recipes but some suggestions.
Cooking oil: He is probably allergic to many oils derived from nuts or seeds. Rice bran oil is probably the least allergenic. Palm oil is also good and is semisolid at room temperature.
Flour substitute: Try rice flour, oat flour, or tapioca starch. Caution: baking powder is mostly corn starch, Feather Lite is the only one that uses uses potato starch.
Sea food: First make sure he is not allergic to shellfish. Brush lightly with oil and broil, bake or grill.
Veggies: Steam or stir fry.
Spices: Avoid spices unless you are sure that they are OK.
Milk substitute: Pacific Organic Oat is probably OK. Others are doubtful.
Don’t surprise him. Discuss every ingredient before you use it.
