When you have a cough, try these remedies for relief in just 10 minutes.

Friends, during the monsoon season, many people experience coughing issues—some suffer from dry coughs while others have a productive cough. The lack of sunlight during this time leads to the spread of various illnesses in the environment.

There is also a risk of fevers such as malaria, typhoid, and dengue. If a cough is not treated promptly during the monsoon, it can worsen and take a long time to recover from.

In today's article, we will explore some home remedies to alleviate coughing that should provide you with relief. The solution to this problem can be found in our own kitchens.

For treatment, you will need to take a small amount of turmeric and mix it with a little honey to consume. This remedy helps relieve coughing and can also ease discomfort if you have enlarged tonsils.

Next, for those suffering from a cough, they should place a pinch of salt on their tongue and gradually swallow the salty juice down their throat.

If you have a cough accompanied by phlegm and gas, you should try this home remedy. Take 10 to 12 grams of sesame oil and 3 grams of rock salt.

Combine this with black pepper powder and the root of pippali (long pepper), and consuming this mixture will provide immediate relief from your cough.

Another home remedy that can help relieve coughing involves taking about 100 grams of alum. Heat it in a clay pot until it expands, then grind it into a powder.

Take approximately 10 grams of this powder and mix it with 30 grams of powdered raw sugar. Combine these two powders and take about a gram of the mixture in the morning and evening. After consuming this powder, drink some turmeric milk for added benefits.

If you boil bhorangdi (a herb) in water and consume it once cooled, it will help relieve your cough. After taking this concoction, consuming honey will further ease your symptoms.
