Dear Patient,

I'm sorry to hear that. Do you smoke? What kind of work do you do?
To be on the safe side get a chest Xray.

For home remedies the best treatmwnt is gargle and steam regularly to get maximum phlegm out. Make a hot drink with fresh turmeric, cinammon and cloves. Mix honey and lemon in it and drink half a glass as needed.
