Hello, Welcome to HCM, Chronic cough will increase the intraabdominal and intracranial pressure, which is leading to your symptoms. Pain in the abdomen and the temple is evident that you are having vigorous chronic cough. You may require sputum examination,chest X ray and blood examination, this will guide us towards the possible cause for the cough. After identifying the cause treatment becomes easy. I would suggest you take 1.Oral Antibiotics 2.Oral Antihistaminics 3.Cough syrup 4.Analgesics. Consult your doctor do all the investigation and you can take this medicine by taking prescription from him. Thank you.
