Brenda all I can suggest is to drink lots of water, and if he can take plain Robiutession. That helps loosen the mucous.

Does your Dad like "spicy hot sauces?" I've found that it helps loosen all that stuff up when I eat the hot sauces on stuff.
I am sorry your Dad is dealing with this. My Dad has the same thing and it's very difficult to deal with at times. I wish your Dad well.

I found this on the internet and who knows, it's worth a try right??
 When a person feels congested and has a lot of phlem, a glass of hot coca cola before going to bed for several days will help a lot.

There is some over the counter medicine like the Vicks treatment - sorry I can't remember the name, but you put it in the shower with you - on the floor and as the water hits it, it puts off a vicks-like aroma and that combined with the hot steam really seems to open up your head/chest. My daughter swears by it. She, her husband, and two kids have all had great results with it!
I hope you find something that works! |
