Hereâs another way to think about the price of hearing aids. If your hearing aids cost $4800, and they have a life expectancy of five years, they will cost you $960 per year, $80 per month or $2.66 per day. In other words, while the total amount is high, the ongoing usage price is reasonable. Monthly, it is about what you would pay to get satellite or cable television.
Chest Congestion. Chest congestion is a common symptom of respiratory tract infections (like the common cold). Chest congestion is an accumulation of fluids and mucus in the lungs, which can cause symptoms of pain, discomfort, tenderness, coughing and difficulty breathing. Coughing is a way for your body to get rid of irritants in your airways or an accumulation of extra mucus thatâs stuck inside your lungs.
2. Inhaling steam is another very effective way to get quick relief from chest congestion as the steamâs heat and moisture help break up and dissolve mucus. 1  Fill a bowl with very hot water. 2  Add a few drops of eucalyptus or peppermint essential oil. 3  Place your face over the bowl and a towel over your head.. Salt Water. Gargling with salt water several times a day is an effective treatment for chest congestion. While the salt helps remove mucus from the respiratory tract, the hot water reduces irritation in the throat. 1  Add 1 teaspoon of salt to a glass of warm water.
