Can You Please Recommend Home Treatments For Cough ?
Question: My mom use to cough several times and it causes pain between her chest and stomach. It is observed from past 2 weeks.
We have consulted a doctor, and he told she has viral.
We have consulted another doctor , who prescribed some tests as he felt about typhoid. After test reports he confirmed she don’t have typhoid.
we have followed the prescriptions they gave including some antibiotics injections but still we don’t see much of relief in cough and pain.
Mostly she cough during night time while sleeping. We are also following home treatments warm water, hot sips.
Can you please recommend something.
Brief Answer:
Sputum analysis
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for your query.
The typhoid test reading is not significant.
Typhoid usually doesnt present with cough.
I suggest you to get a Chest Xray and sputum analysis done for better understanding and to come at diagnosis.
Is she a Diabetic ?
Is she taking any medications now?
