Question
I’ve had a cold with a severe cough recently, and it’s very painful every day. So, I want to ask what the treatment for a cold and cough is and what medication should I take?
Answer
If you’re experiencing persistent coughing, it’s possible that you have bronchitis. It’s recommended that you take antibiotics along with anti-inflammatory infusions. You can also use cough suppressants. In this situation, treatment should be based on clinical diagnosis of symptoms and signs. It’s advised to drink plenty of warm water, be cautious to avoid catching a cold. Maintain a regular diet, avoid extremely cold, spicy, and irritating foods. Still, pay attention to eating lightly. If necessary, go to the hospital for a routine blood test and a chest CT scan to rule out any conditions. Pay attention to your diet; never eat sweet and spicy foods. Drink plenty of warm water, be cautious about the weather, and avoid getting wet. Rest well, and strictly avoid eating spicy or irritating foods.
