 Please note that heart issues are extremely sensitive. As such you should first consult a doctor before using any home remedies for the infection. A chest infection can be treated by a course of antibiotics prescribed by a physician. At the same time, there are ways to treat it at home. One of the easiest remedies is consuming one tablespoon of honey about thrice a day. Honey fights colds and coughs and improves immunity levels. You can also take one teaspoon of ginger juice and mix it with two teaspoons of honey and consume it about thrice a day to get relief from chest infection and cough. Drinking a cup of hot milk with one teaspoon of turmeric powder also serves as an effective medicine for infections because of turmeric medicinal properties. Sucking on cardamom or sugar candy also brings relief from cough. Consume lots of fluids and avoid eating foods that produce phlegm, like, rice, yogurt, banana, fried stuffs, and sugar. Staying away from smoke and smoking is also beneficial.
