Agreed^^ I did the same thing and it helped a bit. If you are having a lot of phlegm,  try taking mucinex DM. I took that and it helps get rid of the drainage so you can spit it out and can help stop the coughing.

Put vicks on the bottom of your feet and put on a pair of socks. Or use a humidifier at night with eucalyptus oil. Should help =)
