My mom has got covid and has got cough because of it. But when she coughs the cough does not come out like it should (and then you can spit it out of your mouth). My father saw some video and it suggested that one should drink some amount of salt water for 4-5 then the cough gets cleared out or something.
Would anyone confirm whether this method works or not? Or please suggest if anyone know other solutions.
Thank you
I don’t know about drinking it. But i have tried using warm salty water to gargle during the time i had tonsil and it works like wonder.
Yes yes she’s has been gargling using salt and turmeric water since day one. But it’s isn’t helping out with the cough.
Thanks you
Take care…wish her a speedy recovery
No way… please don’t go for this because the salt water itself acts as an emetic ( induces vomiting ) and may even lead to hypotension if taken in excess amount. And salt water would not help her in any way.
Instead ask her to go for salt water gargles and STEAM that would do wonders for her surely !!
Steam followed by proning would make her relieved and she would surely get rid of this problem.
And incase some other symptoms appears then do go an expert advise.
Take care !! ,🌻
Yes I understand she gargles and takes steam regularly. Also medications prescribed by doctor are also going on.
I think drinking salt water would result in vomiting like you said but not sure the vomit may clear out the cough or not.
No emesis won’t help her to get rid of her cough infact could even result in other complications…so better to avoid it.
Yes I guess it better to not try.
Thank you so much
hii…i don’t have idea about salt water but when i had covid what i used to do is in warm water put turmeric and salt a bit and gargle it just do one to two glasses of that…don’t drink just gargle…it worked like wonders for me as warm water would clear the cough and everything and turmeric being antioxidant worked good…i would suggest this but i don’t know if it works for everyone…and if you think the cough doesn’t get… better contact a doctor…
Hope your mother gets well soon
Be safe , Take care
Heyo she’s been gargling and taking steam regularly with the medication prescribed by doctor. But it’s not helping out with cough.
Well I guess it’s better to not try that out.
Thank you
