10 Home Remedies For Croup
Home Remedy #2: Cold Air
In some patients with croup, cold air can help relieve stridor as it helps reduce the inflammation and swelling in the airways. In regions with cold climates, the patient can go outdoors and breathe in the cold air to alleviate stridor. Ensure that the patient is dressed warmly.
Those who are not in areas with cold temperatures can open the freezer door and breathe in the air that comes through. If the affected individual starts making a “crowing sound” while breathing or has worsened symptoms after breathing in the cold air, seek medical care right away.
