answer:It depends on the cough. Some of them can be controlled with home remedies. Others simply won’t respond no matter what I’ve tried. Try hot water, lemon juice with honey, honey and whiskey, and I have a few other ideas, but for the others you need to have the skill already, and not pick it up once you’re sick. If the suggestions you get here don’t work, go to the doctor. Nobody here can tell you how you can stop coughing.
