How can I help her alleviate her cough symptom? She drinks sips of water, but it's not enough to help.

To help alleviate cough symptoms, you can try clearing the nose with a sinus rinse four times a day, especially before bedtime. Mucus dripping down the throat is often responsible for coughing. Using honey can help soothe the cough. Make sure to keep the person hydrated by giving them water. Elevating the head section of the mattress where they sleep at night may also help. Have a good evening.
