Well, at times cough and cold is so severe that we have to take a medicine to counter it(or give to the children). However, we can use some remedies at home. I can think of these- 1)Use a herbal tea 2)use cinnamon mixed with honey. 3)Drink a tea with ginger,cloves and /or basil (Tulsi) leaves. 4)Take steam in a container, and inhale to your nose(with eyes covered). I think we can even try alternate medicines like Ayurveda, or Homeopathic.
