Coughing and a little breathless, what should I do?

In daily life, cough is a common cold symptom. Especially during the season change, when cold air suddenly strikes, a large number of bacteria enter the human respiratory tract, often causing symptoms such as coughing and runny nose. When it is just a simple cold and cough, there is no need to worry too much. Using some anti-cold medicines can have a significant curative effect. But when the cough is accompanied by asthma symptoms, it should not be taken lightly. What should you do at this time?

When symptoms of coughing and wheezing appear, the cause should be determined first. Coughing with slight wheezing is sometimes normal, but if the wheezing is severe and affects other normal life conditions of the person, you should seek medical attention in time and take the right medicine.

For those whose condition is not very serious, diet therapy can be adopted. Diet therapy takes a long time to take effect but has good healing effects and is also the most cost-effective treatment. Patients can drink more warm rice porridge, milk, and less irritating fruit juice, and try to avoid overly sweet or salty foods. Light and diluted foods are best.

Use safe and effective topical medications. For infants and young children, it is best to eat less medicines that are mainly composed of chemical substances, as they are highly irritating and can easily affect the healthy growth of children. You can use safer topical medications or plasters.

If the cough is caused by a cold or fever, it is best not to use cough suppressants. First cure the cold, fever and other symptoms, and then observe the cough. If the patient is an infant or young child, medication must be used under the guidance of a doctor and should not be treated indiscriminately to avoid the development of pneumonia.

Pay attention to the cleanliness of the environment. For patients who cough frequently, it is best not to live in places where exhaust gas, sewage, and dust are likely to float.

Physical exercise should be moderate and not excessive. It is best not to exercise too much for people whose bodies are in the pathological stage, as lack of oxygen in the lungs can easily cause symptoms such as coughing and dizziness.

The change of seasons, sudden changes in temperature, and colds are the main factors that cause dry coughs. Dry cough is one of the common symptoms of lung diseases in clinical practice. The cause is relatively complicated, mostly due to inflammation of the bronchi or trachea. The anti-inflammatory effect is not obvious. The condition is so stubborn and difficult to treat. The reason is that the effect of the medication on the bronchial terminal of the trachea in the lungs is small, the air quality is poor, and the exchange with the air makes it difficult to treat.
