Alternative medicine and natural remedies for hoarseness throat

Sometimes the throat is parched and we feel that something bothers us or is stuck, and then we cough, i.e. try to clear our throat with some air in a particular way, resulting in a sound or a cough that may sound fake to hide the noise that causes this reaction.

However, most of the time the throat is not cleared, and this only cause it becomes irritated and more uncomfortable.

Causes of hoarseness

Coughing can be a form of "silent complaint" even used theater as a way to tell someone "here we are" or make us notice.
