Wheezing and chest congestion, often from asthma or bronchitis, can be eased with natural health remedies that open airways and clear mucus. Steam inhalation with eucalyptus oil loosens phlegm, aiding expectoration. Warm ginger tea reduces inflammation, easing breathing. Postural drainage, lying with the chest low, promotes mucus flow. Avoiding cold air prevents airway constriction. Eating omega-3-rich foods, like flaxseeds, reduces lung inflammation. These evidence-based methods, rooted in respiratory therapy, alleviate symptoms by enhancing mucus clearance and reducing airway irritation, offering relief without synthetic drugs and supporting lung health.
