[QUOTE="Bruce_ma gooshvili, post: 1083516, member: 74121"] For those finding chestiness like Amiga here I'd heartily recommend Benylin (sic) syrup for chesty coughs. Other expectorants can have similar ingredients but this one is the daddy and if a bug gets stuck in your chest you can be exhausted for up to 3 weeks with no difficulty at all and can end up then needing antibiotics. My brother got Covid last week and was just at mine today picking up two bottles of the stuff because he suspects it's still clinging on in his chest and he is weaker than he was 5 days ago (which is often a sure sign it's in your chest). Holding a very deep breath for 5 seconds and repeating this 5-10 times after any sleep / nap you've had is also very worthwhile to get the lungs moving. The above combo has kept me chest infection free for at least 5 years now and I used to get them all the freaking time (usually from hiking up foggy mountains or in freezing winds). EDIT: I should add that you will most often have zero cough with a chest infection and the purpose of an expectorant is to break up chest mucus and make you cough. [/QUOTE]
