A piece of ginger in the mouth also helps.
The latter shouldn't be tried by anyone sensitive to spicy food as it can irritate the stomach.
A couple of crushed basil leaves with one teaspoon of honey and some ground pepper clears the throat immediately.

Hope you feel better soon.

I hope you enjoy reading it when you can.
