Sturg1647545502 Posted November 3, 2010 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 so here is how this works, you want to be drinking an ass ton of water. If you are feeling bad you can cut gatoraid in half with tap water. avoid things with lots of sugar,(pop, juice etc), caffeine or alcoho. lThe idea is the more fluid you take on and retain the more fluid you have to loosen up the secretions in your lungs(hence the sodium and other -lytes in 1/2 gator aid) deep breath and cough. google it on how to do it exercise (running, cycling, what ever is you aerobic choice) will obviously jump your respirations up and allow you to bring up more mucus. But you have to not only hydrate to loosen up the secretions, but since youve worked out you have to drink even more to replaces whats youve lost. If you work out and dont replace fluids, you can bet the cold will stick with you for a few weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsm_sleeper Posted November 3, 2010 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 I would try either Guaifenesin (an expectorant) or NAC (N-Acetyl-Cysteine). Personally I use the NAC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmann Posted November 4, 2010 Report Share Posted November 4, 2010 water water water. Also spiced chai tea or your pick flavor black tea with honey. Mucinex's website says that DM is the best stuff for cough, BTW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin R. Posted November 4, 2010 Report Share Posted November 4, 2010 Also, don't go to work and cough all over the damn place. I haven't been sick in 10 years, but am forced into an office with people who don't know how to take care of themselves coughing all over the fucking place. This has been a public service announcement. http://palmgoon.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/the_more_you_know2.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buck531 Posted November 4, 2010 Report Share Posted November 4, 2010 I just got over a sinus infection and since I smoke the coughing was worse. Every time I coughed I spit out the shit that was in my mouth.. I never swallowed it. It helped a lot. or.. you can go see a doctor and give you a steroid. My doc did to help with the coughing. That and mine gave me vicodin to help me sleep at night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
