Advice on Lung Cancer patient, Can you help with what will work to reduce or help somehow with phlegm ?
She is very weak, and having a hard time getting the phlegm up, her lungs are not strong enough to cough up the phlegm so is there a food that may dry up or maybe something that may ease this for her? so i can tell the nurse, (any advice please) so i can ask the nurse about it. Thank you.
