Suggest Treatment For Phlegm And Hoarseness

default
Posted on Sat, 20 Sep 2014
Question: I have a problem with phlem and hoarseness, would like to know if there is anything for a cure.
I went to an Otolaryngology and was told to live with it as I was to old to go throuh having a shot in my throat. I am only 80 years old and tough as nails. I believe that if I can stand this discomfort, then I van stand anything. Is there any help?
