Please Help Me For My Chronic Cough

Try homeopathy. For chronic or frequent cold and cough I presume this system offers better remedies without much hassles as in other regimen-bound-med system.

• Avoid going to bed immediately after food. Between dinner and night sleep begins allow atleast 2 hours gap.
• and amble for atleast half an hour after dinner.
• Avoid curds in dinner all forms.
• Ensure night free of edible oil and mirchi.
• Have food for dinner like pauper's and eat break fast king size and lunch prince like.

Cough is indicating something else is wrong in the system. It is not necessary around larynx or throat.

 

Did you get your lungs checked? If not done already, please insist on an ultrasound of the lungs as water accumulation in lungs can cause chronic cough.

Ayurveda does work in some cases of chronic cough but you need to identify the root cause.

If the root cause is allergies, have you tried allergy shots? They are much stronger and more long lasting than nasal sprays or allergy pills

 

Have you tried testing for allergies and allergy shots. That can help. Need to figure out what exactly causing this.

Also, try cleansing house often, change filters of AC, try air purifier, humidifier, wear mask if going outside.

If you like to try Ayurveda, consult doctors in government ayurveda hospitals with experience and degree. Some procedures help lung ailments. Anyway, consult an allergy specialist.

 

Addendum to my fb. @ #2

Copied from google just for information:
Not all coughs come from outside irritants sometimes the body itself creates conditions that make coughing more likely:

• Genetic tendencies – People with a family history of asthma, allergies, or airway sensitivity are more likely to experience chronic cough.
• Immune response – An overactive or sensitive immune system may react strongly to minor irritants, leading to ongoing cough.
• Acid reflux (GERD) – Stomach acid rising into the throat can irritate the airway lining and trigger coughing, especially at night. Homeopathic approaches for managing acid reflux–related cough are described in homeopathic remedies for cough
• Airway structure – Narrow or unusually shaped airways, or weakened respiratory muscles, can make some individuals naturally more prone.

 

Hopefully I can answer your question as I face this often. I have chronic cough due to allergies, I am from USA and during my last visit to India , these allergies caught me up and I had cough for about a month and none of the medicines helped, After I came back I got Xray and other tests, they said that my airways got irritated and gave me inhaler( not asthma). THat helped after 2-3 doses my cough is completely gone.

If I get cough it wont leave me for about 1-2 months, I am a certified Yoga , meditation and Pranayama practitioner and a trained carnatic singer.

I mentiond the above points because, I regularly do Yoga, pranayama and sing regularly almost every single day, and atleast monthly 1-2 outside programs.

I give enough exercise to lungs and my diet is generally in tune with Ayurvedic principles completely sathvic, even then this cough bother's me.

I do Jalnethi almost every day.

My doctor told me my cough is only due to irritated airways due to allergens. So only solution in my case is doctor prescribed inhaler.


I dont use inhaler every single day thats what my PCP told, only one cough last more than 2 days.

She said if at all I run out of it, she would prescribe one more, its easy to use and great solution.

I dont know in which category of "Chronic cough" you fall to? please find the problem then solution will be there. All the best

 

Do allergy testing of different foods. Try to change your diet. There are common allergens like dairy, eggs, gluten, soy, processed foods, canola oil etc. Read book by Anthony Williams "Cleanse to heal". It has helped many people healing chronic illnesses. Breathing exercises also help lot.

 

A close kin couldn’t find what food or beverage or drink was disagreeable to her for decades. That was situation even after numerous tests.

On fine day the entire family left on an adventure and got marooned in an islet. They couldn’t get their familiar foods and beverages. They camped their for a fortnight.
They noticed islet had very small population and couldn’t see any animals/ quadroops.
Then kin’s hubby noticed that usual symptoms she had that caused uneasiness and discomfort and even Queasy stomach all have vanished.

Then after brooding for long that they realised that they haven’t had milk or milk based products in the previous two weeks. Thus they concluded that kin was allergic to milk.

 

After reading the cries of families who had lost their child due to administering toxic cough syrup as recommended by a doctor(S) in Madha Pravesh, I wonder whether we should buy cough syrup from shop.
Herbal cough syrup containing tulsi (holy basil) is the one my family physician recommends even for dry cough.

He did advise me avoid taking other types of cough syrups as they contain compounds that cause hallucination.

He banned for me and my family the Benadryl expectorant as it contains chloroform that would cause billousiness or swinging head and affect digestion and tender linings in the lung passage.
