Steam: Inhaling steam can help loosen mucus and relieve congestion. You can take a hot shower or bath, or fill a bowl with hot water and inhale the steam for several minutes.

Saltwater gargle: Gargling with saltwater can help soothe a sore throat and reduce coughing. Mix a teaspoon of salt into a cup of warm water and gargle for 30 seconds before spitting it out.
