Cognac as a means for warming up the larynx
A small amount of cognac is said to warm up the larynx, which helps relieve symptoms. This drink, due to its high alcohol content, can indeed have a temporary warming effect. Combined with a spoonful of honey, which has antibacterial properties, this may seem like a logical way to combat a throat infection.
However, medical experts note that this method is far from a complete treatment. Cognac, despite its warming effect, does not eliminate the causes of the disease. Moreover, alcohol can dry out the mucous membranes of the throat, which in some cases only worsens the problem. Doctors recommend considering this method only as a temporary remedy for relieving symptoms, but not a replacement for traditional treatment.
Folk recipes: wrapping the throat with a towel with cognac
Another interesting method that is gaining popularity is cognac compresses. Knowledgeable people advise soaking a towel in cognac and wrapping it around the neck, which, in their opinion, is not inferior to the effectiveness of pharmacy menthol tablets. This method, according to supporters, improves blood circulation and relieves tension in the throat.
However, experts emphasize that the effectiveness of such procedures is not scientifically proven. The use of alcohol compresses can cause skin irritation, especially in people with sensitive skin or a tendency to allergic reactions. It is important to remember that folk methods are not always safe and can only be additional measures in treatment, but not the main ones.
