Just staying hydrated will help you a lot. But the honey and lemon will
sooth your throat. There are wonderful things in honey we don't even
yet understand that have great health benefits.

If it is a "post nasal drip" cough, you REALLY want to drink a lot
of fluids because it is when the mucus gets thick and sticky that it
does that. You can also try irrigating your nasal passages with
warm water. It's best to do in the shower (!) but you just snort
up some water and snort it back out! (I have had two sinus
infections in my life, and this helped me so much.)

Hope you feel better.
