It sounds like your system is still carrying some **residual Kapha and Vata imbalance** from the viral infection.
This is common after severe cough â the main signs you mention:
* **Occasional dry cough** â Vata component (dryness, irritation in respiratory tract)
* **Heavy head, feverish feeling** â residual Kapha + mild post-viral inflammation
If left untreated, this can linger for weeks. The aim now is to:
1. **Clear residual mucus & ama** (to reduce heaviness and âfeverishâ feeling)
2. **Soothe dryness and irritation** in the throat and lungs
3. **Rebuild immunity** so symptoms donât come back

## **Ayurvedic Home + Medicine Plan**
### **1. Morning (empty stomach)**
* **Warm water with 1 tsp honey + ¼ tsp dry ****powder**
â Clears mucus, lightens head, supports immunity
*(Honey should be added to lukewarm water, never hot)*
---
### **2. After breakfast & dinner**
* *****Churna** â 1 tsp + ******Pishti** 125 mg + honey (as paste)
â Clears residual cough, strengthens lungs, and reduces low-grade inflammation.
---
### **3. Midday**
* *****, *****, and Dry ****tea** (each 1 pinch, boil in 1 cup water, reduce to ½ cup)
â Anti-viral, expectorant, yet soothing for dryness.
---
### **4. Night before bed**
* ************ â 1 tsp in warm milk
â Reduces lingering inflammation, improves post-viral recovery, helps sleep.
---
## **5. Steam Inhalation (1â2Ã daily)**
* Add **ajwain seeds** or **tulsi leaves** in hot water steam
â Clears nasal passages and heavy head.
---
## **6. Diet & Lifestyle**
* Warm, light meals â moong dal, vegetable soups, soft rotis
* Avoid cold, sour, and refrigerated foods for 2â3 weeks
* Gentle walks in morning/evening, avoid exposure to wind or cold air
---
### **Expected timeline**
* **2â3 days** â heaviness in head & feverish feeling reduce
* **7â10 days** â dry cough should almost resolve
* **3â4 weeks** â full post-viral strength restoration
---
If your âfeverishâ feeling starts **increasing** or you notice **shortness of breath, high fever, or chest tightness**, that needs immediate re-check by a doctor to rule out post-viral complications like pneumonia or secondary infection.

If youâd like, I can also give you a **single combined churna formula** you can prepare at home that covers **both cough and heaviness in head** so you donât have to take multiple things separately.
Do you want me to prepare that formula for you?
