only with a home remedy.
The Bottom Line
A simple mixture of honey and lemon may help soothe an irritated throat and make coughing more comfortable.
It can be useful as a supportive home remedy during a mild cold, but it does not clean the lungs, cure infection, or replace medical treatment.
Use it for comfort, stay hydrated, avoid respiratory irritants, and seek medical care if symptoms are severe, persistent, or associated with breathing difficulty.
