Catarrh Treatment Methods

Sip Water When Throat Needs Clearing

Clearing your throat often won't help the situation, as much as it feels like it will. Patients who constantly clear their throat may dislodge mucus or cause their throat to become sore. Instead of clearing your throat as you might normally, try sipping water when your throat needs clearing instead. Cold water is the best option, as the temperature helps numb the throat so you can't feel the discomfort of needing to clear it. It also provides moisture that will keep your throat from feeling so dry. It's hard to stop clearing your throat once you've gotten in the habit, but try to bring a water bottle with you to as many places as possible anyways.
