Suggest Treatment For Chronic Cough And Watery Eyes In A Child
been coughing for 2 1/2 weeks the 1st week its a sticky mucus it is so severe when i lay down i been taking cough syrup covonia for the week period. On the second week it becomes so dry that when i cough it cause a watery eyes then started taking antibiotics flucloxacillin this lessen the cough but i got a hoarse voice for a week now and my cough has subsided it becomes very occassional. But what troubles me is i notice that there is presence of blood when i cough too hard, but if is just normal coughing theres no traces of blood. I dont have a sore throat my appetite is alright and i dont have any fever or shortness of breath or any sign of fatigue.
Hi...it is very common to have blood streaks in the sputum during violent cough. It is because the small blood capillaries which are in the back or the throat and pharynx may rupture causing some blood to get mixed. So do not worry about it as there are no other systemic serious symptoms like fever or weight loss or loss of appetite. Regards - Dr. Sumanth
