Pulmonologist 's  Response
Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Excessive coughing can cause Urinary incontinence and problem in urine.
So we should first treat your cough.
And for this better to consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system, chest x ray and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test).
Chest x ray is needed to rule out lung infection.
PFT is needed for bronchitis.
You may need antibiotics, antihistamines, inhaled bronchodilators and inhaled corticosteroid according to the cause.
So better to first diagnose yourself and then start appropriate treatment.
Also get done Urinary microscopic examination because you are having blood in urine.
Hope I have solved your query.
Wish you good health. Thanks.
