Suggest Remedies For Severe Cough And Pain In Chest

I believe I have bronchitis. During the day it's bad enough, but night is horrible! I cough so much that sleep is impossible. And now my nose is stuffed up and my ears feel like they pop when I cough. Also, my chest aches with every cough. What can I do to stop the coughing and pain?

Pulmonologist,  's  Response
Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Night time cough, blocked nose and ears are more suggestive of allergic bronchitis.
So better to consult pulmonologist and get done
1. Clinical examination of respiratory system
2. PFT (Pulmonary Function Test).
PFT is must for the diagnosis of bronchitis. It will also tell you about severity of the disease. And treatment of bronchitis is based on severity only.
You may require inhaled bronchodilators and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS).
Oral combination of antihistamine and anti allergic drugs are also beneficial in your case.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
