The most varied causes of coughing

One of the most frequently reported complaints that doctors hear from their patients, especially in the colder seasons of the year, is a cough. This complex reflex action is a protective reaction of the body, which is released from accumulations in the upper pathways of the respiratory tract.

Causes are various. Often it is associated with an allergy that occurs when exposed to irritant factors. The causes of coughing can hide in the appearance of non-severe pathologies, and may indicate the presence of lung cancer or tuberculosis. The most common complaints about this very unpleasant phenomenon appear in diseases of the respiratory system. The causes of coughing can also be covered in the pathologies of blood vessels and heart. For the successful treatment of this reflex act, a timely diagnosis is needed. It will serve as a key to successful therapy of pathology.

The nature of the cough can also be different. In the case when it is short-term, this may indicate the manifestation of a protective reaction of the body. A prolonged cough is an undeniable symptom of any disease. The main causes of coughing are unproductive, dry, obtrusive, debilitating, usually in ARVI, inhaling irritants, tuberculosis or lung cancer, pertussis, and the presence of a foreign body. With such complaints of the patient, the main purpose of the prescribed therapy is to suppress this reaction. This will ease the patient's condition. In this case, anti-cough non-narcotic medicines are recommended. Their list includes preparations "Glaucin", "Tusuprex" and others.

Often, the causes of unproductive cough lie in the inflammatory processes of the mucous membranes of the respiratory tract. This situation is typical for tonsillitis, tonsillitis and pharyngitis. To facilitate the patient's condition, in this case, preparations are recommended against cough, which exert a peripheral effect. They contribute to inhibition of the cough reflex. This is due to a decrease in the sensitivity of the respiratory tract receptors. Such drugs are "Libexin", "Falimint", as well as other medicines, which contain plant extracts.

A long cough, the causes of which are often hidden in bronchitis or tracheitis of an acute nature, is treated long and hard. The main goal of the therapy is to increase the hydration of mucous membranes, which will help stimulate sputum secretion. To eliminate this pathology, it is recommended to perform inhalations with plant extracts of elecampane or thyme, as well as solutions of ammonium chloride or sodium benzonate. These procedures will produce a bronchodilator effect and stimulate the secretion of glands. We also recommend the use of the herbal preparation Suprema Broncho. It will have a complex effect on the respiratory tract.

The causes of morning cough, as a rule, are chronic bronchitis and bronchiectasis. This reflex act also appears in smokers. An unpleasant phenomenon in the evening hours appears in patients with pneumonia or acute bronchitis. Night cough, the causes of which can be very serious, usually occurs with tuberculosis or lung cancer.
