Keep gargling
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
You can in fact try home remedies like warm milk and pepper twice a day. Continue gargling and tsp of honey later. These soothen throat.
I do not suggest medicines at this time as this cough would bother for a week. With the above measures the healing is quicker than pills.
