Get plenty of rest, especially while you have a fever. Rest helps your body fight infection.
Stop smoking and avoid secondhand smoke, which can make cold symptoms worse
Drink lots of fluids such as water and clear soups. Fluids help loosen mucus. Fluids are also important because they help prevent dehydration.
Gargle with warm salt water a few times a day to relieve a sore throat. Throat sprays or lozenges may also help relieve the pain.
Avoid alcohol.
Use saline (salt water)...more

Hello there,
for cough, take 2-2 teaspoonful of pranacharya kasantak by mixing it in hot water twice daily. Sitopaladi, praval and tankan bhasm churna taken with honey can also bring relief. Consume this 3 to 4 times a day for relief from dry cough; you can also drink tea with basil leaves or add ginger and black pepper in it.
Salted hot water gargling also helps. And stay away from cold drinks and don't take milk when having cough.

You can create your own remedy at home by mixing up to two teaspoons of honey with herbal tea or warm water and lemon. The honey does the soothing, while the lemon juice can help with congestion. You can also simply eat the honey by the spoonful or spread it on bread for a snack.

This is not a prescription
A share on home remedies of clove .cardamom karaikay, ginger tea or lozenge ,turmericmilk etc.
No clear statistically significant info is available to the best of my knowledge.
Medically I think aloud that you might be suffering from sinusitis where in mucus from the nose is dribbling down the throats hits the vocal cords and triggers. Cough. Consult a pulmonologist or an ENT surgeon.
