Can taking small sips of water help you not cough when you have a cough?

It seems that it does, so I wonder if other healthy things could be added to the water to make it help the cough more.

    It sure can.

    I find hot tap water works well.

    Similar to sipping a cup of tea, without the hassle

    In my opinion you need to find out the source of your cough.

    Coughing can be caused by multiple reasons. It would be important to see a doctor before you do anything else.

    Coughing is not good.
