    hi ramya,

    had just received this f/w msg. for treatment for cough. pl.try it out. may be it might give some relief to your child. hoping a speedy recovery.

    Treatment:
    To stop night time coughing in a child (or an adult, as we found out personally), put Vicks Vapor Rub generously on the bottom of the feet at bedtime and then cover with socks.


    Even persistent, heavy, deep coughing will stop in about five minutes and stay stopped for many, many hours of relief. This works 100 percent of the time, and is more effective in children than even very strong prescription cough medicines.

    Hi,

    Also, I used to give my 2-year-old kid with juice of small onions (Shallots) with ginger and honey in empty stomach. It works well. Even if small onions are not available, replace with normal onions.

    Hi Ramya,

    Crush a piece of ginger and take the juice out of it. Keep it aside for some seconds, some sediments will be deposited at the bottom, dont use that.
    Take the top layer water mix with honey and lemon juice all in equal proportion and give to kids before going to bed.For 1 yr old take 1/2 ml each and increase the amount depending the age of the child. u can continue it for 5 days. From my experience, it works better than antibiotics.
