Loads of people I know seem to be suffering from annoying cough caused by
catarrh in back of throat.
Can't take decongestants due to blood pressure treatment. An Olbas Oil
seems to be the best I can use.
Anyone else afflicted. Any solutions?.
No runny nose - just bad cough caused by catarrh (salty) u throuat that
needs coughing up.


My old Doc, not someone for issuing a scrip if there was a simpler solution was very much of the opi
nion of the cereal plate of boiling water and towel over the head and breath the steam. Add couple o
f drops of olbas oil for nuclear effect.

It`s not instant but pereverance pays off.


Try menthol crystals in hot water, but be careful - it can blow your head off.
