Question
Why do I cough so badly at night?
Answer
Your condition might be due to wind-cold cold-induced cough. The symptoms include frequent coughing, thin, white sputum, clear nasal discharge, pale or slightly red tongue with thin coating, and a heavy cough sound. Headache and fever may also occur, and in severe cases, there might be rapid breathing. Treatment can involve the use of Sanao Decoction combined with herbs that reduce gas and phlegm. It could also be caused by bronchitis, necessitating treatment to control infection, expectorate, suppress coughs, relieve spasm, and perform nebulizer inhalation. Engaging in physical exercise to strengthen your body and enhance the immune system is also recommended.
