    Thank you for your suggestions. I am 78 and having problems with the cough, irritated throat, and mucus in my lungs. It’s still a problem even after getting Covid nearly 3 weeks ago. (Vaccinated and boosted)
    Raised head and ginger tea has really helped. I’ve never smoked in my entire life and eat a plant based diet, but this virus really went after my normally healthy lungs! Still a mild case, but very annoying, so thanks for the help.

      Hang tough! Remember, everybody's system is different. You chances are considerably better if you are 50 and below. I am in my 60;s. Caught it and suffered chest and throat pain for 2 months even after I tested negative. Its been 4 months now since it left me. I am now much better with the signs having disappointed notably. Keep taking the boosters and live well.

    What works better than salt water is Italian Salad Dressing! I had a very bad sore throat and as many others did, I used salt water, But I really couldn't gargle it for some reason.
    After trying for several days and barely eating, I was craving a salad of tomatoes, cucumber and onions drenched in Italian salad dressing. This seemed to really help, and I believe it's because of the oil sticking to my throat, which helps sooth a very dry sore throat. In case anyone is wondering what brand of Italian Dressing I used, it's Ken's. Unlike the warm salt water, try Italian Dressing instead. Make a salad or have a little cup of Italian Dressing to drink. My belief is it works better the salt water because it sticks to your throat to coat it, where the salt water will wear off in a couple of seconds. Italian Dressing, who knew? And it tastes better, too!

    • @CB-wq9wp
      @CB-wq9wp 9 месяцев назад +1

      I tried this, and it really helped! However, i got a different brand of Italian dressing, because Ken's contains MSG.

    Thank you!! Most sensible advice I have heard for three years. I am already doing most of these things but being almost 79 it was reassuring to hear most of what I am experiencing is normal for this illness. Had all shots and boosters but got sick anyway. I think the best thing we did was avoid crowds and probably should continue to do so. Will always check out what you have to say if I ever get sick again.

      I was on the natural treatment bandwagon for 18 months before deciding to stockpile Iver. Thank God I did that because I was able to take Iver from day one when I got covid a month ago. I was still pretty sick. Looking back, if I was on the natural treatment, I would have ended up in the hospital and may die. Herbs/Supplements may work on some but maybe totally inadequate for others. Had I given the virus 2 weeks to replicate out of control, I'd be in the hospital and have severe damage from the virus. Sure, do all the things you listed, but get real anti viral drugs (Iver, H See Q) to be safe.

    Had a cough and horrible sore throat. Best remedy for sore throat that I’ve found is a concoction of 1 tbsp organic apple cider vinegar(with the mother) and 1 tbsp organic raw honey in a glass of warm water(8 oz) There is some kind of chemical reaction of the ACV and the honey that soothes the throat. I made a double batch of this and put it in a thermos…sipped it all day! It really works!!

    I have covid right now, first time ever had a minor sore throat days along with a headache days ago but now since yesterday(tested positive) my throat is in a lot of pain now, thankfully my fever dropped but my throat hurts when I swallow. When I have to cough it hurts it even more. I have had some camomile tea with honey that helped a little, I had an ice pop before that which on throat felt good and helped quenched my thirst but made me cough unfortunately due to the cold irritating my chest area. I've been taking tylenol every 6 hours which helps some pain and lowers my fever. But yeah so far for me that's the most painful and annoying thing!

    Without home test kits, as they are only issued free to people with existing medical conditions,
    we are not to know if we have COVID or not. As we can only guess from your guidelines, that we may be
    experiencing Covid, I find these tips very helpful. If I may, I would like to add good breathing exercises
    especially those related to dispelling phlegm. I have been practising breathing exercise for a while and have
    benefited from this practice in a very big way.

    I just got covid 3 days ago, my fever has decreased but starting from yesterday the sore throat began , extremely painful feeling when you swallow drink water eat etc , on the first day drinking coconut water was fine , but yesterday when I drank it the sweetness stings my throat shocked me because I was not ready for it , havent had any night sleep since fever started , maximum 1 to 2 hours , my mouth would constantly salivate and it hurts to swallow which makes it harder for me to sleep.

      Same with me, 4 days or so ago, my sore throat pain even reached my ears. Drinking water was pure agony but I had to drink water while agonizing. It was epic torture. Some pain killers like Ibuprofen and lozenges Strepsils and Difflam helped me. Now I still have sore throat but it's bearable. I'm now drinking 4 to 5 cups green tea daily with some calamansi and a little honey. My first time to have COVID and my only two symptoms are sore throat and an occasional cough and no fever. Perhaps my two booster shots this year were responsible for my mild case. I take Melatonin to help me sleep some nights.

      Yes, me, my gf and her mom got simmilar issues. 3 months post covid. My cough resolved 6 weeks after infection. But there is still lot of dryness in my throat, esophagus. And IT just doesnt feel right. Itch, burn and sometimes wanting to cough without actual cough.
      Just recently got diagnosed with acid reflux aswell. But the doctor didnt perscribed anything, i only asked him for antihistamines just in case. He suggested gastroscopy if IT doesnt go away.
      Im quite nervous, inpatient and just angry this takes quality of life for so long.
      I took antibiotics perscribed by another doctor 6 weeks ago, it didnt help at all.
      IT seems to improve with time however extremely slowly and its not linear progress, more like rollercoaster ride.

I'm on day 3 and almost back to 100. I actually got it from someone who is triple vaxed. I'll add that back in December my parents who are in their late 60's and 70s and my other brother (all unvaxed) got covid from someone who had just gotten their 3rd booster and became sick within a week, then came in contact with my dad. Being they are older it was a bit more rough but they made it through, same protocol, no doctor. I hope both you and your friend are doing better.
