In current wave, the cough persist for a while even after a person recover from the infection. Please be patient and you will be fine. You can take any cough syrup from a nearby store if you continue to have cough for some time. Please wear mask and follow physical distancing regualrly. In recovery from covid-19, healthy diet, regular physical activity and good sleep is very helpful. I am confident that you will recover very soon.

1. Do saline gargles daily. 2. Whenever possible do steam inhalation also. 3. Cover your nose and mouth with hanky for at least 30 sec when you go in dusty areas also when you go in and out of ac. As our nose is the most sensitive part of our body, when there is temperature difference between two rooms or inside n outside, then if we not protect our nose, it gets affected. 4. Drink hot liquids --hot liquids relieve nasal congestion, prevent dehydration, and soothe the uncomfortably inflamed membranes that line your nose and throat. Homeopathic treatment has very encouraging results and gives relief in long term consult online with details.
