I have been wondering, is there a way that my wife can stop coughing? I mean I have taken her to her doctor a few times and it gets better but as soon as she s out of the syrup he prescribes for her ,it comes back again. She has had this cough since she was a child. So with all these tegnology we have now. isn t there something that would her get rid of it? Thank you Doctor in advance. Yours in christ Jesus, Paul
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. In my opinion you should consult pulmonologist as chronic recurrent cough needs evaluation. Causes for chronic cough are1. Infection like TB or pneumonia2. Asthma3. Bronchitis. So get done chest x-ray first to rule out infection.PUT (Pulmonary Function Test) to rule out asthma and bronchitis. She may need Inhaled therapy and antihistamines.  So better to consult pulmonologist and diagnose her first.
