Hello dear user,
I evaluated your query thoroughly.
Cause is constant irritation of underlying bronchi / alveoli due to any noxious
stimulus usually allergen in the atmosphere or some internal pathology in
selected cases.
Recommendations for you :
- gargles with salted lukewarm water & added peppermint oil 3-4 times/day
- avoid oily / spicy / chilled items / beverages / non vegetarian stuffs
- avoid shouting
- avoid smoking / alcohol if using
- avoid exposure to dusty atmospheres , if required use mask
- avoid swimming if doing
- regular deep breathing exercises with YOGA help tremendously
- best ayurvedic herbs are amla , turmeric , tulsi
- avoid stress / anxiety
- have regular sound sleep of 6-7 hours
- selected cases may require certain specific molecules like decongestants,
anti-histaminics , bronchodilators , steroids , antibiotics according to the
clinical evaluation & supportive data of investigations.
Hope this clears your query.
Thanks for using HCM
