Also: simmer fresh smashed garlic cloves (3-4) in a small pot of
chicken broth, sprinkle with a bit of cayenne, and sip this.

It will get all the gunk in your lungs loosened up and moving around
like you need it to in order to get better. You know garlic is a natural
antiseptic among other things. It is the cayenne that gets everything
moving, and the heat, too.
