Steamed orange with salt - a natural remedy touted for coughs. I don't know why I started coughing a week back. But I also heard some of my friends have been having lingering coughs too. Weather? Maybe. It has been raining at night but blisteringly warm in the day. Change of temperature perhaps. I have horrid experiences with coughing and it goes way back to my childhood days. Weak lungs maybe. Cold gets to me so I don't even wear bare back tops because my lungs might catch a cold! So travelling to cold countries is a bit of a love-hate relationship for me. I like that I don't sweat but I also know too much of cold and I get all wonky inside. So yeah. From my past experience I only either get Wind Heat cough or Wind Cold cough. Both are terrible. Both are hacking, phlegmy and wrecks sleep especially at night. For the past week I have tried a lot of remedies. From drinking water steeped with Indian borage (plucked fresh from my garden)...
