How to stop coughing due to itchy throat

CC • Mon, Jun 19

I have a virus.

I've been involuntarily coughing at night in bed as my throat feels so itchy. It's kept both my fiancé and myself up. Not to mention I pee a little on my stronger coughs.

Any suggestions on a cure or remedy?

Might be having some post nasal drip and night . Try also propping your head up a bit when you sleep.

Take a decongestant and mucinex to get rid of mucous, with a cough suppressant to stop the coughing. Stay well hydrated, use a humidifier if in a dry climate. Check with a dr before taking otc meds if pregnant.

Drink hot jello. Or eat a marshmellow. Tea with honey
