What to drink for a scratchy throat and cough

Itchy throat and cough are mostly seen in respiratory diseases, especially upper respiratory tract diseases, with pharyngitis as the main cause. At this time, it is recommended to drink hot drinks as much as possible, including water boiled with oranges and pears, and try not to eat cold drinks, such as yogurt, frozen drinks and frozen beer, and not to easily contain various throat lozenges, such as watermelon cream, grass coral and golden throat, which will only aggravate the cough and itchy throat. You can also soak green fruit, rooibos, maitake, lemon and other lung moistening and cough suppressing fruits and foods to reduce the symptoms of itchy throat and achieve the purpose of cough suppression. Try not to eat bacon, sausage, hot pot and other spicy products. You can drink hot boiled water anytime you have an itchy throat, carry a thermos, and try to drink it earlier once you have an itchy throat and cough to avoid repeated episodes of coughing leading to a more pronounced gag reflex and higher cough frequency.
