Question

The child’s sore throat has led to a cough, and they have been taking medicine for 3 days but there is no improvement. I’ve heard that garlic water therapy can help. Is this believable? What are some good suggestions for treating the cough?

Answer

Your cough is caused by a sore throat, and it’s not advisable to drink garlic water as it’s stimulating . For treating tonsillitis as the underlying cause, you can take amoxicillin. It’s best to complement the treatment with lozenges that clear the throat and relieve soreness, as well as using a golden fruit drink. During medication, make sure to drink plenty of water, consume more fruits and vegetables, and eat less spicy and irritating food. Regularly drinking hawthorn fruit tea can help prevent long-term vocal strain.
