Deep Coughing. Start by taking a deep breath, hold for 2 – 3 seconds, using your stomach muscles to forcefully expel the air. Avoid a hacking cough or merely clearing the throat. A deep cough is less tiring on the body and is more effective in clearing mucus out of the lungs. 2, record 1, English, - deep%20cough
