How To Treat Cough?

I have developed a very violent cough which occurs several times a day and causes me to choke and vomit in order to clear the persistent irritation. No drinks, sweets or cough mixture can stop it. It only stops when I choke or vomit. I have experienced this several times this year and have been treated by antibiotics, but it keeps reoccurring.

HI,
I understand your concern.
repeated cough suggests possibility of-
- Allergic origin- asthmatic bronchitis / toncilar involvement.,
- the infecting organism is resistant to the antibiotics given,
- Diabetes with uncontrolled blood sugar
To manage you need few investigations like CBC/ sputum culture & sensitivity/ X ray chest/ blood glucose ( fasting & post meal ).The treatment planned by a chest specialist,in light of these results would help you.
A healthy life style with a balanced diet/ regular respiratory exercises & physical exercises/avoiding exposure to allergens is essential along with the treatment advised.
Thanks.
