Hello Harish, to help expel the sticky mucus safely in muscular dystrophy, try warm liquids like ginger-tulsi tea and warm water with turmeric and honey to thin mucus. Steam inhalation with eucalyptus oil can help, as can gentle chest percussion by a caregiver to move mucus up. Herbal lozenges like mulethi (licorice) soothe the throat, and *Sitopaladi Churna* with honey may support respiratory health. Gentle postural drainage, where you lie with your chest slightly lower than your legs, and breathing exercises, like diaphragmatic breathing, can also assist. These methods should be done consistently and with healthcare guidance for safe, effective relief.

For a 47-year-old individual with muscular dystrophy experiencing throat congestion with an inability to expectorate, Ayurvedic treatment focuses on clearing Kapha and strengthening respiratory and immune functions. Start with Vyoshadi Vatakam (1-2 tablets) and Kaphaketu Ras (125 mg) twice daily with honey to help relieve congestion. Sitopaladi Churna (1/2 teaspoon) mixed with honey and taken twice daily can support respiratory health and soothe the throat. Additionally, a steam inhalation with a few drops of Tulasipatra (holy basil) or Ajwain (carom seeds) can help loosen mucus, making it easier to expel. Gentle chest massages using warm Tila Taila (sesame oil) infused with Vacha (Acorus calamus) can also be beneficial for respiratory and muscle relaxation.
Ensure proper hydration, warm water intake, and a light, easily digestible diet that includes ginger tea or warm cumin water to reduce Kapha. Adding mild daily exercises and gentle breathing exercises (Pranayama) under supervision may also enhance respiratory strength and support muscle function.
