whn we had dry cough n it not stopping, my maa used to say yuh palate drap..(causing the irritation)

n her ‘cure’ for it was to wrap her index finger with a clean piece of cotton or gauze..damp it n put fireside ashes n salt b blackpepper ..then she put the finger down yr throat n rub yr palate . Whn she done she made u gargle with warm salt n black pepper water!!

Believe it…it was painful n i bit her finger many times but it ‘cured’ the dry cough right away!!
