Coughing after colds and flu, what is the best medicine, please advise?

Cough is a protective reflex action of the body. The pathologic secretions in the respiratory tract and the foreign substances that enter the respiratory tract from the outside can be discharged through the action of the cough reflex. However, if you have a frequent *** cough that interferes with your work and rest, you will lose your protective significance.

[Pathogenesis]

1. Respiratory diseases

Respiratory parts, such as pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchus and lungs of the *** gas inhalation, foreign bodies, inflammation, tumors, bleeding, etc. *** can be caused by cough.

2. Pleural disease

Pleurisy or pleura by *** (such as spontaneous pneumothorax), can cause cough.

3. Heart disease

Such as mitral stenosis or other causes of left heart insufficiency caused by pulmonary stasis and pulmonary edema, can cause cough. In order to the right heart or body circulation vein embolus dislodgement caused by pulmonary embolism, can also appear cough and hemoptysis.

4. Central factors

Cough can also originate in the cerebral cortex (random cough), when impulses are sent from the cerebral cortex to the medulla oblongata cough center, causing coughing movements.

[Clinical manifestations]

1. The nature of the cough

Cough without sputum or sputum is very little, known as a dry cough, commonly found in acute pharyngolaryngitis and acute bronchitis in the early stages, pleurisy, mild tuberculosis, etc.. Cough with sputum is called wet cough, common in pneumonia, chronic pharyngitis, chronic bronchitis, bronchiectasis, lung abscess and cavitary tuberculosis.

2. Cough time and rhythm

Sudden onset of cough, mostly due to acute inflammation of the upper respiratory tract (especially *** gas inhalation) and tracheal or bronchial foreign body caused. Long-term chronic cough, mostly seen in chronic respiratory diseases, such as chronic bronchitis, bronchiectasis, chronic lung abscess, cavitary tuberculosis. Episodic cough can be seen in conditions such as whooping cough, bronchial lymph node tuberculosis, or carcinoma compressing the bifurcation of the trachea. Chronic bronchodilatation and lung abscess, patients tend to get up early in the morning or at night when lying down (i.e., change *** when) coughing increased, and then sputum.

3. Cough tone

Cough hoarseness is caused by inflammation or tumor of the vocal cords, which can be seen in laryngitis, laryngeal tuberculosis, laryngeal cancer. Barking cough is often seen in epiglottis, laryngeal disorders or tracheal compression. A low-pitched cough is seen in patients with extreme weakness or vocal cord paralysis. Metallophonic cough can be due to mediastinal tumors, aortic aneurysms, or bronchial cancers such as direct compression.

The cough is accompanied by the following symptoms, which are suggestive of a diagnosis:

1. The accompanying fever is often due to respiratory infections, bronchodilatation with concurrent infections, and pleural inflammation.

2. With chest pain can be seen in pneumonia, pleurisy, bronchial cancer, spontaneous pneumothorax.

3. Those with weight loss should pay attention to tuberculosis, bronchial cancer (primary lung cancer), etc.

4.

4. Dyspnea is common in severe cardiac and pulmonary diseases, massive pleural effusion, spontaneous pneumothorax, etc.

5.

5. Those with rales can be seen in bronchial asthma, spasmodic bronchitis, cardiogenic asthma, and intratracheal foreign bodies.

6. With pestle finger can be seen in bronchiectasis, chronic lung abscess.
