Natural remedies for a sore throat and dry cough focus on hydration and soothing irritation. Gargling with salt water reduces throat swelling, while honey’s antibacterial action soothes and protects. Marshmallow root tea forms a protective coating, easing dryness and cough discomfort. Steam inhalation clears mucus, and hydration supports mucosal health. These scientifically supported remedies, rooted in tradition, address both symptoms effectively, promoting recovery without synthetic drugs.
