How To Get Rid Of The Cough?
My name is Elizabeth Reeves. I am 20 years old. I weigh 145lbs and 5'4". Everytime i go to bed i cough and it is constantly it takes me awhile to go to sleep. I wake up in the middle of the night coughing. As well as when I get up in the morning. I have taken cough drop, day and night medication, rubbed vicks on my chest, the humidifier is on at night with vicks in it. I have tried drinking something hot and cold nothing is working. What should I do?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern and looking to the history given here I could say that if this is the chronic cough and not responding to symptomatic medicines then this need to be investigated, in my opinion, x-ray chest, EKG, Echo, routine blood test are the tests that need to be done, have a nice day.
