OK, one of the reasons of having a hard time breathing along with constant coughing is latent allergies. Take a good hard look around your home and work place. Do you see dust lying on the furniture? Does your coughing and breathing problem increase during spring time? Could be a pollen allergy or a dust allergy. You could also be suffering a mild form of asthma. To rule out allergies, you can try airing out your apartment space once a week and increase the dusting frequency. Another thing you can try is to use special air filters on your air vents to catch pollen or dust mites. Bronchitis can also be a major reason of coughing and breathing difficulties. Avoid smoking; reduce your intake of dairy products and up your levels of vitamins supplements specially vitamin C, which can boost your immune system. Some home remedies for cough are - Half tsp cayenne pepper, half tsp ginger powder, quarter tsp clove powder, two tsp honey, two tsp water, and one tsp water, are brewed for a few minutes in warm water. Sip this tea as many times as required through out the day.
- Two tablespoons cider vinegar in a glass of warm water seems to soothe the throat and reduce persistent coughs.
If your cough and breathing difficulties persist, please consult with a trained specialist to rule out allergies and sleep apnea. Remember its better to be safe then sorry.
