Home Remedies for Covid Cough and Sore Throat. Helpful Tips on What to Do During Home Isolation... 

I have also been gargling salt water for sore throat all of my life and it works!

To ppl who r here you will be the survivors cuz you're trying

Vaccinsted or not makes no difference. We still are getting really sick out here. Even the very healthy without underlined issues. The honey and lemon tea helps tremondously. I also took one clove of garlic raw with a quarter teaspoon of honey for a natural power punched antibiotic/antiviral hit.

Thank you for your suggestions. I am 78 and having problems with the cough, irritated throat, and mucus in my lungs. It’s still a problem even after getting Covid nearly 3 weeks ago. (Vaccinated and boosted) Raised head and ginger tea has really helped. I’ve never smoked in my entire life and eat a plant based diet, but this virus really went after my normally healthy lungs! Still a mild case, but very annoying, so thanks for the help.

6:48 is when the actual sore throat tips start

Same old fashion remedies my grandmother used. Gargling with salt water, honey and tea, lozenges and acetaminophen. They really do help you through. Thank you for reaffirming all of these remedies.

Just want to say Thank You Dr. Tan for your generosity in taking time to make this video with so much good usable information. Wish more doctors were like you. Blessings.

Thanks very much Dr. I got dry cough, sore throat, pains in muscles, and fever. I will follow your tips and quarantine my self.

thank you so much for the great tips and advice !

Thank you Dr. Jerry Tan. I am also positive and you helped me through. I am.now 11 days but still.positive since my firsr symptom and hope I will soon be negative. Just praying for full recovery. I am isolating also myself

Thank you!! Most sensible advice I have heard for three years. I am already doing most of these things but being almost 79 it was reassuring to hear most of what I am experiencing is normal for this illness. Had all shots and boosters but got sick anyway. I think the best thing we did was avoid crowds and probably should continue to do so. Will always check out what you have to say if I ever get sick again.

This is the 5th/6th day of me infected with covid. My throat feels like there are multiple needles in it. It gets even worse in the morning when your throat is dry. It's torture to even drink water. Gargling salt water does help with reducing the pain a bit. Thanks doc

Doc, Thanks, this was so helpful!

Thanks doc. Very helpful tips.

Thank you Dr. Gerry for these tips!

Thanks doctor! Very helpful! 😊

What works better than salt water is Italian Salad Dressing! I had a very bad sore throat and as many others did, I used salt water, But I really couldn't gargle it for some reason. After trying for several days and barely eating, I was craving a salad of tomatoes, cucumber and onions drenched in Italian salad dressing. This seemed to really help, and I believe it's because of the oil sticking to my throat, which helps sooth a very dry sore throat. In case anyone is wondering what brand of Italian Dressing I used, it's Ken's. Unlike the warm salt water, try Italian Dressing instead. Make a salad or have a little cup of Italian Dressing to drink. My belief is it works better the salt water because it sticks to your throat to coat it, where the salt water will wear off in a couple of seconds. Italian Dressing, who knew? And it tastes better, too!

This was very helpful for me. Thank you for taking the time to post it.

Very helpful information Doctor thank you so much !

Super helpful! Thank You!!

Thank you Doc for your advice I got severe cough and sore throat and aching all my muscles but I didn't know this is Omicron.

Thank you sir for the tips. It's been helpful to me.

Very practical advice, with no hint of pressure. Thank you.

Thank you Dr. your tips are very useful .

My remedy is usually a mug of hot water with 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar and less than a teaspoon of organic ginger powder. No sugar.

Brilliant, thank you.

Thank you for the great information.

Great video. Thank you for all your suggestions. I just subscribed to your channel. I am in my early seventies. Four days ago I found out that I had mild covid. My doctor told me.

Beginning my 4th week of sore throat with coughing especially when I drink or eat. It just doesn’t stop. Disappointing because I’ve had 2 shoots and 2 boosters. So of what help they were I have no idea. Yes Doctor, the hot tea with honey seems to be the only thing helping me. Thanks for sharing your thoughts Sir. God Bless

Thank you Doc for the health tips.Take care from Canada

really good info.

Thank you Doc. I had sworn to buy a sleeping tablet today because the cough is giving me sleepless nights. Will do what you have suggested especially the angle of sleeping. Am subbing for any other medical issues.

Hi Doc. Watching. Thanks for your info. Its very helpful. God bless you.

Thank you doc for the share your video.. God bless you doc..

Thank you.

This is what works for me: 1. Daytime Cold & Flu by equate Sold at Wal-Mart The medicine is Orange color. 2. Ricola Lemon Mint it's soothing relief. 3. Chamomile Tea with some real honey. Home town Honey is the BEST. 4. Strawberry Yogurt is cool and soothing. By Great Value at Wal-Mart 5. Keep a bottle of water next to me at all times because you never know when a sudden dry cough will attack. 6. Brush teeth. Get well soon everyone:) In Jesus name Amen

All good advice. The only one that really seemed to take the pain of the sore throat and coughing associated with BA.5 was Acetomenofin (Paracetamol in the UK). The rest offered temporary relief but still worth trying. The symptoms will likely last around 10 days so you have time!

Thanks doc very helpful vedio

Cepacol cough drops worked Great for me, took them for like 2 days and sore throat was gone finally

V good tips!

I’ve got BA5 (I think) and I gotta tell I’ve never had a sore throat like this. Like gargling thumb tacks.

Salamat kaayo Dok..

Why most of the comment s here are thanking other doctors? Why, dont they thank them with their own channel? This channel is to share what are the best medicine and home remedy while u have covid...

Thank you For this video I’m also experiencing postnasal drip any tips can get rid of that during Covid isolation thank you for any help you can give me

Tnx Doc

I used Chloraseptic Sore Throat Spray, Cherry in June for my painful COVID sore throat. It instantaneously and completely relieved it. 👍

Thank you doctor, because my sisters are extremely exaggerated they make really uncomfortable.

thanks doc. covid Day 2 and suffered with sore throat

Dr, just tested positive on Friday. Sore throat is killing me and unable to swallow anything even water. Now coughing is getting worst too 🥹

I would not eat something cold. Your body heats up for a reason. I drink hot pepper tea and it actually helps make the sore throat go away.

Sure wood like to get a hold Dr Fushie will pay $1 k

I have covid right now, first time ever had a minor sore throat days along with a headache days ago but now since yesterday(tested positive) my throat is in a lot of pain now, thankfully my fever dropped but my throat hurts when I swallow. When I have to cough it hurts it even more. I have had some camomile tea with honey that helped a little, I had an ice pop before that which on throat felt good and helped quenched my thirst but made me cough unfortunately due to the cold irritating my chest area. I've been taking tylenol every 6 hours which helps some pain and lowers my fever. But yeah so far for me that's the most painful and annoying thing!

Tips starts at 3:50

Thanks for sharing this extremely important information. What is the difference between severe sore throat and covid sore throat? I had severe sore throat. Could only talk with raspy voice. Sounded worse than it was. Gargled with salt water. No fever no other symptoms. Appreciate any insights.

I will do the salt gargle because I been doing the peroxide and doesn't stop the coughing.

I have a bad skin reaction to products with Acetaminophen. Are there any other options for me in this case?

Thank you for the tips . . Using warm water with salt is quite effective. God bless 😊

Thank you for the tips

I am 77 years old. Fairly fit, eat sensibly and very stubborn. I stopped taking up my 5th vaccine booster. Without home test kits, as they are only issued free to people with existing medical conditions, we are not to know if we have COVID or not. As we can only guess from your guidelines, that we may be experiencing Covid, I find these tips very helpful. If I may, I would like to add good breathing exercises especially those related to dispelling phlegm. I have been practising breathing exercise for a while and have benefited from this practice in a very big way.

I tested positive today. . and i will isolate myself now... Good thing im alone now at home... Sore throat is worst at night
