Irritable cough - Wick VapoRub
At the moment I have a very strong irritant cough that plagues me a lot. For the night I have paracode drops that help quite well. Yesterday afternoon I had to cough so much again, I thought, I'll try Wick VapoRub.
This is a cream that can be applied to the chest and back. Especially for cough and runny nose, you get in the pharmacy. Since you should not touch your eyes with it because it is burning, I took a disposable glove and then put a paper towel on my chest. Over it the undershirt.
Some time later I noticed that cough was gone. Thought me, that's just coincidence. But I felt much better all evening.
Of course, the cough was back today, when it got so bad again, I took again Wick VapoRub. I can hardly believe it, the coughing is gone again.
I'm sure it will not completely eliminate the cough, but I've had tremendous relief for a few hours. Just try it. Maybe it will work for you too. I'm totally surprised how it worked for me.
