Suggest Treatment For Cough,congestion And Headaches
I ve had a deep cough and chest congestion for almost three weeks. Symptoms also included a soar throat and headaches, both of which stopped after the first two or three days. Cough and congestion have not gotten better or worse. Is there anything I can do other than just wait this out?
Hi, It seems that you might be having bronchitis following upper respiratory tract infection. This chronic cough might be due to Eosinophilia so go for complete blood checking like TC, DC, ESR and Eosinophil count. After report go for treatment accordingly. Mean while go for some cough suppressant syrup. Do deep breathing exercises. Avoid dusty, humid atmosphere. Avoid cold drinks and junk food. Ok and take care.
