Any remedies you guys have for chest congestion.

My lungs are basically filled with congestion by now and I’ll take whatever you got.
Sounds funny but, something like eucalyptus, or menthol,or rosemary, frankincense or vicks vapor rub, a chest rub ointment or spray.

rub over your body - amd step into a hot shower,

all the fumes rise with the steam and you breath it in.
It calms a cough, but... It lifts mucus,

At a pinch you can use anything that is a decongestant ( amd if you don't want it on your skin, soak a face washer and hold it under the hot spray.

Best part - you can just cough it up and spit it out - no tissues and stuff. Plus -having a shower helps one feel, and sleep better.


Also - dont put the fan, on - let the bathroom steam right up, and stay in tjere as long as the air is steamy.
Amd yeah, Loke someone mentioned - get outta bed, sleep om tje couch sitting up as much as possible - this'll reduce the aggravation thatakes you wanna cough.

If the weather is cold
Get out in the early morning and go for a walk - fast walk

Adrenalin is a natural decongestant and the cool air is good for the soft tissue of your lungs.

You need to get checked because you could be going into pneumonia.

A decongestant will help you cough it up and clear it.

If your lungs are filled, see a doctor ASAP. You may need an inhaler.
