Suggest Remedy For Allergy Related Coughs
I had a terrible coughing attack due to allergies - one week ago. Two days later it felt like someone hit me with a baseball bat along the curved portion of my ribs. And it hurts worse now, 5 days later. Sneezing almost brought me to my knees. Any suggestions?

Hello
Severe cough , pain in the ribs and uninterrupted sneezing may be due to these reasons , these include:
1 Allergic rhinitis , sneezing , cough , lacrimation tears and nasal itching are the symptoms present in this disease and cause is allergy .
2 Asthmatic allergic bronchitis is another most common cause of such symptoms. Usually this is due to bronchoconstriction caused by some allergen associated with infection.
3 Flu or common cold is another such reason .
When such patient visit my clinic I prescribe them to take montelukast+fexofenadine once in day with dextromethophan + chlorpheniramine maleat+menthol syrup .
Also take levofloxacin 750 mg once in day .
Since all these drugs are prescription medicine , so please consult a physician and get his opinion.
But if cough is very severe then take codeine + chlorampheniramine syrup ( but this causes addiction , so you can't take this without prescription of a qualified doctor).
Good luck.
