plantago has helped a persistent dry cough but seemed to have caused ear problems

Hello Ann, There are a very less chance that Plantago causes Ear problem. In fact, Plantago is a herb that penetrates the middle and inner ear canal and its antibacterial property helps to counter all ear infections.

I was taking it for sinus, and it gave me tinnitus. When I stopped it, the tinnitus went away. I'm sure it's a very rare side effect.

I have a cough that is not dry that never goes away. I have been ingesting Zeolite powder because I knew that it was the chemtrails that gave me the cough. In 2015 I also had shortness of breath (not asthma), but it was due to chemtrails. The Zeolite ended the shortness of breath and the cough was virtually gone, but then the cough returned since then and has remained while the shortness of breath didn't return causing me to think that the cough's cause was not the chemtrails any longer. A friend who is a holistic therapist suggested plantago for lung congestion. What do you think? And if you think the plantago would work, please advise what I should buy and where would be a good place to order it?

Arlene. You can buy it from any homeopathic store. Take the mother tincture every day for 15 days. Either order it online or buy from any homeopathic store.
Or, you can drink Plantago tea everyday for a month.
