VapoRub?

I spent many a night in my lifetime with night time coughs. I wish I knew this then!  I am saving this little tip that was shared on Facebook to my blog here as a reminder in case I ever get that bad of a cough at night again!  (Or even during the day... why not cuddle up in the recliner with some VapoRub socks on? right?)

Some people have used Vicks Vapo rub for years for everything from chapped lips to sore toes and many body parts in between. But one usage is getting a lot of attention lately because studies show that it works 100% of the time. Although scientists discovered this remedy, they are not sure how or why it works, but it does. And it works every time. To stop night time coughing, you put Vicks Vapo rub generously on the bottom of both feet at bedtime, then cover with socks. Even persistent, heavy, deep coughing will stop in about 5 minutes and will stay suppressed for up to 8 hours of relief. Studies show that it is more effective in children than some of the strongest prescription cough medicines on the market today. In addition, it has a soothing and comforting effect that brings on a sound and peaceful sleep.

I am usually quite skeptical of any such advice. But I was desperate once. My mom told me about this trick. I tried it, and it worked. Maybe coincidence, but I would try it again if needed.
