I've read about it on here & other forums & been a bit skeptical, I've got this cough & sore throat that's doing the rounds, Friday night i rubbed Vicks vapour rub on the soles of my feet & put me socks back on when i went to bed & NO coughing, well not till about 3 30 am so last night i put it on a bit thicker & not one cough from 11 pm till 7 45 am it's great, so can i put it on during the day as well ? can't stop coughing & it's wearing me out. |

My o.h. developed a chest infection while we were away the other week and had a dreadful cough, he said it hurt his ribs. We went to a local Walk in centre and he was given antibiotics but I suggested the Vick and we bought some so he could try it on his feet - he thought I was barmy for suggesting it. He did get some relief from the coughing at night tho so tried it the second night and it worked again. I recommend it to everyone I know lol Shame I didn't think of him getting a chest infection, we now have two partly used tubs of Vick as I hadn't taken the one from home so had to buy more. |

But does it still last for up to eight hours, Malcolm? |

I might just give it a go, Malcolm. After four months my cough was finally going, now this week it has come back and at night I am wheezing and purring just like I was a month ago. |

you know what they say - if your nose runs and your feet smell, you're built upside down :-D :-D |

I watched a programme on Channel 4 some years about Garlic. They said the Roman soldiers would place between two pieces of cloth, cloves of Garlic and place it on the soles of their feet. |
