A cough lasting two days is often due to minor throat irritation or a mild infection and can usually be managed with simple measures.

🩺 What You Can Do Now

• Stay well hydrated by drinking warm fluids like herbal teas or warm water with honey and lemon.
• Use throat lozenges such as ginger lemon flavored ones to soothe irritation; these can help reduce coughing.
• Avoid irritants like smoke, dust, and strong perfumes that may worsen the cough.

⚠️ When to See a Doctor

• If the cough persists beyond a week, worsens, or is accompanied by high fever, difficulty breathing, or chest pain, consult a doctor promptly.
• If you experience side effects like dizziness or nausea from any cough medicine, stop use and seek medical advice.
