Symptoms of allergic cough:

Allergic cough, also known as cough variant asthma, is a special manifestation of asthma. It is characterized by persistent or recurrent cough for more than one month, often accompanied by paroxysmal cough at night or in the early morning, with little sputum, aggravated by exercise, no clinical signs of infection, or ineffective antibiotic treatment for a long time. Treatment with bronchodilators can relieve cough attacks, and there are often personal or family allergies. The treatment for allergic cough is the same as that for asthma. The principle is to eliminate the cause, control attacks and prevent recurrence. The cause of asthma is complex and is affected by both genetic and environmental factors. We should avoid contact with allergens, actively treat and eliminate infected lesions, and remove various inducing factors such as smoking, paint, cold drinks, sudden climate changes, etc. During an asthma attack, drugs can be used to relieve bronchial smooth muscle spasms, reduce airway mucosal edema and inflammation, and reduce sputum secretion.

Persistent or recurrent attacks usually last for more than one month. Some patients only cough at night, especially in the second half of the night, or in the early morning or after exercise. There are no clinical signs of infection and no obvious positive signs in physical examination. If the patient also frequently experiences "cold" symptoms without fever, such as sneezing, runny nose, itchy nose, itchy eyes, etc., especially if there is a personal history of allergies such as eczema in infancy, more attention should be paid to the presence of allergic cough. Like any allergic disease, allergic cough has another major characteristic: it will recur and become difficult to cure with changes in climate, environment, and lifestyle.

Through the above introduction, we have a good understanding of the symptoms of allergic cough, so when treating, we must proceed according to the above conditions of the patient. The treatment of allergic cough also takes some time, and during treatment, the diet also needs to be reasonably arranged to facilitate cough treatment.
