Had these cough for 11 days can be quite violent.very tired. No fever saw me on Friday says lungs are clear felt I was turning corner. Long corner gave me cough syrup with codeine 2 teaspoons at night still have not slept thru night. Revered to them as pearls to take during day. Any idea on long this wil last. Thank you
thanks for your question you need to consult a pulmonologist who can request for a chest X-ray and sputum culture for pyogenic organisms and some allergy workup . allergic cough will go once you start antihistaminics like fexofenadine and infective cough will need broad spectrum antibiotics for all these you need to disscuss the points with your pulmonologist so that your cough goes away thanks feel free to ask more questions may god bless you with good health
