Common Questions and Answers about Coughing virus
coughing
I have been coughing since September. I caught a bad flu and after that I can't stop coughing. I also went to Asia for the first time in October and with the recent typhoons there, could I have made it worse. I used Biaxin (anti-biotics), started with Symbicort (puffer), then on Alvesco and now I am on Nasacort, Advair and Aerius. Is this a post virus cough, asthma or something else...your thoughts?
Assuming that you all had the same virus, the “upper respiratory virus” is likely to have a more sustained effect on your asthmatic bronchial tubes than it did on those of your children and this effect could continue as a cause of your cough for some weeks or longer. Often when this occurs, an increase in ones regular asthma drugs until the cough finally subsides.
I cannot suggest that you make any changes in your usual asthma drugs or their doses.
I was given albuterol, and the first time I used it my lungs did open up (max FEV went from 350 to 475), I could breath better, but I also started coughing up some green phlegm. after a couple of days I had a low grade fever on and off. I went back, was given a z pack, and that seemed to help- no more coughing etc. But within the week I started to have night sweats and episodes of fever a couple of times a day, and have been coughing, sometimes productive, but mostly a dry cough.
If the child had an intestinal virus or bacteria, it would have to go quite the circuitous route to get into your your digestive tract, because airborne germs applies more to sneezing and coughing from colds.
Ill have an itch in a random place on my body and it will go away right away. I am also beginning to get stuffed up and have been coughing up yellow phlegm. I can tell its been somewhat hard for me to think. I have a feeling it has to do with a virus but do the symptoms sound at all like ms?
An awful cold virus was going through my house last week, and this weekend was my turn. Fever, headache, congestion and cough. I've been taking Tylenol every 4 hours since Saturday to try and keep my fever down. Fortunately, I had my checkup this morning and my doctor said everything seems fine, keep taking the Tylenol for fever and add Robitussin DM at night to help me get at least some sleep.
My husband still has it, and has to sit up in bed at night because he has difficulty catching his breath when his coughing episode happens. He went to the doctor last week and he only prescribed a cough med even though he said he heard a wheeze at the end of the expiration. Now, my 5 year old has gotten it again, same cough,-it is worse during the night with her coughing so long and hard that she has tears in her eyes. She may even have a low grade fever, but again only at night.

Can oral herpes cause excessive coughing and throat irritations that won't go away? Would the symptoms for elderly people who have herpes be more severe than someone younger? If someone with genital herpes contaminates objects(tv remote, keyboards, phones,etc) that are used with other people (which arent sexual items), what are the chances of the virus transmitting?And if so would they have hsv 1 or 2?
Two weeks ago, I had this strange cold, one day running nose, one day coughing, one day heavy muscus then coughing fits sometimes initiated by particular foods and sometimes no eating or cold air and night coughing fits( not every night) were more harsh with lots of phlegm and stomache gas and spitting out. I saw a doctor and prescribed Averin along with 3 other medicines-Lansoprazole, Tulobuterol tape, Cetirizine but with no apparent effect. What to do now?

Any ideal of what we can do for this or what causes it.
It sounds like this could be post-virus. Especially after what I have seen this year. We had a virus with fever and sore throat that moves into a head cold with chronic coughing and sneezing. and when it seems to be setting down it moves in to the lungs flaring back up into bronchitis with coughing that would last for weeks. It will completely drain you and leave you weak and lightheaded.
I went to the E.R a couple of days ago,i was diagnosed with the flu & a stomach virus, was given antibiotics and since i've been coughing up rust colored phlegm.Am i coughing up my lung or maybe this is a result of the Meds i was prescribed have Any clue as to why rust colored phlegm possible Dark blood would be evident when i cough?

They gave me prednisone, which I had side effects of tingly numb feeling arms legs and face so I stopped that. Next day I wake up coughing up phlegm. Not just coughing slightly, but full blown gag cough fits that end with me throwing up. I finally get to an allergist two day's later, thank you weekends. He told me he thinks I have a virus but didnt say which.
My wife also a victim of this virus, she had enlarged abdomen, large amount of water at her abdomen, she even can't sleep down to bed, just sleeping while sitting. She can't stop coughing when she was laying down the bed. As of now were still trying to figure what to do.
My pain and symptoms seem to be gradually getting worse. I currently have a bad cough associated with a virus. The pain I experience when I cough is intense. Sometimes I feel like I am going to pass out. It only last a few seconds, thankfully, but due to the frequency of the cough, it is happening a lot. My question is this: Is the pain dangerous or just another unpleasant aspect of this condition?
