What is cough?
A cough is nothing but a reflex action that clears your airway of irritants and mucus.

Types of cough: productive and nonproductive. A productive cough produces phlegm or mucus, clearing it from the lungs and a nonproductive cough doesn’t produce phlegm or mucus. This nonproductive cough is commonly known as Dry cough

Viral infection can also cause dry cough
Environmental irritants

Home remedies for dry cough/ Treatment for dry cough includes:
1. Honey
Honey has antibacterial and wound healing properties. It can also help to coat the throat, which reduces irritation, pain and inflammation.

2. Salt water gargle
Gargling with warm salt water is one of the simplest and most effective home remedies.
The salt here pulls out the mucus from your swollen and inflamed tissue.
Salt water gargling helps to relieve the discomfort and scratchy throat.

3.Humidifier:
Turn on the cool mist humidifier to increase the moisture in your room.
Steam from a warm shower looses the mucus and can moisturize and soothe your sore throat. You can also take a steam from hot water in any container.

4. Ginger:
Ginger is very beneficial for dry cough. It can suppress the cough reflex by relaxing the smooth muscles of the airways.
It also has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties which relieve pain and discomfort.

5. Thyme:
Thyme contains a compound called thymol that is believed to have antispasmodic effects. It can help relax the smooth muscles of the throat.
Thyme is safe for occasional use only.

6. Marshmallow root

It is used in cough syrup and in lozenges to soothe dry cough.
A study found that it’s an effective treatment for soothing the throat and reducing the irritation caused by dry cough.
Marshmallow root also have antibacterial properties.

7. Peppermint:
Peppermint contains menthol, which helps to numb nerve endings in the throat that become irritated by coughing. This may provide pain relief and reduce the urge to cough. Peppermint also helps to reduce congestion

8. Antitussive cough syrup:
Antitussive cough medications work by reducing the cough reflex. This lessens the desire to cough, making them especially beneficial for dry coughs.
Some antitussives contain codeine and are available by prescription only. Others are available over the counter. These typically contain active ingredients, such as dextromethorphan, camphor, or menthol

If you are not sure what’s causing it, then consult your doctor to figure out the best course of treatment. In the meantime, a combination of home remedies and OTC medications can provide some relief.

When you have a headache and the pill you need isn’t at hand, the situation seems hopeless. But it isn’t so. There’s a scientific way to get rid of a headache called acupressure. Today, we will tell you about this technique which removes a headache effectively and quickly. Let us know in the comments below if this video is beneficial to you. And if so, hit that thumbs up button – it really helps our channel grow!

TIMESTAMPS
Acupressure 0:17
Yintang point 1:10
Zan Zhu points 1:23
Yingxiang points 1:39
Tian Zhu points 1:55
Shuai gu points 2:10
He Gu points 2:23

SUMMARY
– The point of the third eye, or Yintang, is situated between the eyebrows in the place where the bridge of the nose passes into the forehead. This point is also responsible for eye fatigue removal.
– These symmetrical points are located at the base of the inner edge of the eyebrows. Massaging this area also relieves a runny nose and improves visual acuity. Massage for 1 minute by pressing or circular movements, and you’ll feel relief.
– These points are located on both sides of the nostrils in line with the eyes. To find them, feel a dimple in the bottom of the cheekbones. It helps to open sinuses, reduce a headache and toothache, and relieve stress.
– The fourth points, Tian Zhu points, are located behind the head in the middle, between the ear and the beginning of the spine. Massaging these points helps you relieve nasal congestion, pain in the eyes and ears, severe headaches, and migraines.
– The Shuai gu points are situated 2-3 cm from the beginning of the hairline in the temple area. Feel a small dimple to find this point. Pressure applied to this area relieves pain in the temporal region and eye fatigue.
– The last ones are He Gu points. These symmetrical points are located on the back of the hand between the thumb and forefinger. Pressure applied to this area also relieves back pain, toothache, and tension in the neck muscles.

We’ve tried massaging all these points – it really works! What about you? We’d love to hear your view on this, and if you’re visiting our channel for the first time, click subscribe to stay on the Bright Side of life.

The use of complementary health approaches is quite common. There are a number of terms used to describe the use of non-mainstream, or non-allopathic, forms of medicine. Perhaps you have heard of the terms “complementary medicine”, “alternative medicine”, “integrative medicine” and may be confused regarding their current use and meaning. In this lesson, we review the terminology of TCAM and cover some major categories of TCAM practices.
