Avatar f tn Does HPV cause coughing.
Avatar f tn My doctor stated there was a mild decrease in flow in the back but not in the front. He stated he wanted to refer me to a headache specialist to rule out anything else, although my headaches spund like chiari. He said Chiari is not black and white that he operated on an 18 year old with a much larger herniation but no headaches. I will get the actual report but this is where I stand now. I asked him if my wreck and whiplash casused me to become symptomatic.
Avatar m tn Coughing can be a complication of sinus inflammation that causes post nasal drainage or a lower airway reflex, both of which cause coughing. A very common cause of coughing if when the upper airway infection triggers lower airways reactivity, such as with asthma. In most cases in a 3 year old, physicians will try a trial course of upper airway treatment (antihistamines and possibly antibiotics, if sinusitis is suspected) to if this controls the cough.

529862 tn?1216607670 almost 2 yrs. I can do something now that I could do two years ago. I get a coughing spell and it feels like my lungs are itchy as well as my throat, so I close my mouth, contract my stomach or lungs i don't know which, then i hoping my mouth as if i'm lightly letting my breath out, and a cloud of smoke will come out. People do not beleive me until they see it. If this has happened before how can i clear my lungs out? and if not, what type of doctor do i see?
393685 tn?1425812522 I believe I am coming down with a chest cold again and coughing up a storm. This biopsy is schedule for Monday - will they still do it if I am coughing at the time. Gosh - horrible headache and sleepy. Hey Utah and Dac - Is this how you felt? Sure seems like the symptoms the kids all had at school. Now I AM crabby.
Avatar f tn Changes in position affect internal pressures. This definitely can cause rhythm disturbances, especially if you're predisposed. I've had this happen many times to me. Sometimes it can be as simple as placing my arms above my head, bending over, crouching, etc. Remember, your heart sort of sloshes around in it's cavity. As you move or lean, you heart moves as well. It can be positioned where it triggers an arrhythmia.
Avatar m tn Same goes for our 5 year old give any type of milk before bed, 99% of the time she is up coughing. i said bedtime alot because thats usually only when the coughing happens, really kind of weird . Our 5 year old has chronic nasal problems and uses prescription nose spray. So is it really an allergy or something else??
Avatar f tn m still coughing a lot. Why oh why must the coughing trigger the gag reflex? I have a bad gag reflex anyway but the coughing is making it worse. Anyone else dealing with this?

Avatar m tn Hi there I would go to gp blood in saliva could be due to chest infection,coughing too much thus bursting tiny vessels in throat(not serious) if you have severe gastric disorder it could be coming from gastric is the blood bright red? If so this is prob due to strain from coughing,is the blood brown in colour if so this is old blood and should be checked out ASAP are you on medications that could be making gums bleed thus leaving slight blood in your salvia.
87651 tn?1259602403 I had my TT on Thursday and occassionally I get this cough but more like a tickle in my throat. Anyone experience this? Is this normal? I would think so, but just asking.

Avatar f tn I am 13 weeks pregnant with my 4th child I am finding hard to sleep I am up all night coughing it is driving me insane and my tummy is sore from coughing ...
Avatar n tn Wash all the linens in your house and any clothing. Your kids can transfer the pet dander from hands to clothing to other home surfaces. Make sure you try the simple things like vacuuming her mattress and getting her a good mattress cover and a new pillow. I would say - get rid of the pets and get some sleep! As a mother of 4 with 3 under age 3 I can understand your need for sleep. Good luck!
Avatar n tn I would take her to her physician as soon as you are able, it is certainly not healthy for her to keep coughing and vomiting. The coughing will hurt her insides if it is too strong and vomiting will prevent her from getting her much needed nutrients from food, etc. I really am not able to tell you what it is, it could be a number of things, and, as I said, it would be best if she saw a doctor. Please let me know the outcome, I know she must be miserable.
Avatar f tn m 29 weeks and just now getting over it my whole house got it -my 6 year old is still getting over the end stages. I had to go in because the coughing was so bad I had cramping in my lower back and stomach and couldn't really tell if it was normal coughing or causing contractions. I have taken the robutussin and then my ob told me to take a tylenol pm so I could actually sleep.
Avatar n tn Are you coughing because of thick mucus in your throat? If so try taking 500 mg. of vitamin B5 daily. It is a mucus thinner and works beautifully. That is what I use it for. There are no side effects. You can go as high as 1000 mg. Now even though they could find no allergies that doesn't mean you don't have any. Her is something else to try: buy a bottle of liquid Benadryl (the stuff they use for kids).
1194973 tn?1385503904 Kay. It seems Kylie does have some form of cold. She is coughing frequently, sneezing, congested, and fussy. Her temperature is 99 so she doesn't have a fever yet. I've got Tylenol and a vaporizer, but nothing seems to be helping much. Would it warrant taking her to the ped or should we let it just run it's course.
Avatar n tn I have three kids who were sick from Oct to May. This is mainly from being in daycare. They are developing their immune systems and they tend to get sick very easily and you too because you are a mom around germs again. I usually do not take the kids to the doctor unless they have a high temp over 101, throwing up, tugging at ear, not eating.. etc. My doctor has not provided my kids with any antibiotics unless he thinks it might be a bacteria infection.. ear infection.
