Common Questions and Answers about Coughing when lie down

coughing

Avatar f tn Hi, This could most probably be post nasal drip associated with the chronic sinusitis that you mention you have. when you lie down, phlegm or mucus trickles down from your nose into your throat which could be causing your symptoms. Are yu breathless too when lying down? That would point towards a cardiac cause for your symptoms. Let us know about the chest xray and CT scan of your sinuses reports.
768044 tn?1294223436 ve been getting my normal migraines, except my normal migraines have been more severe and even when I get rid of the migraine with the migraine medications or NSAIDS or even stronger pain killers like opiates (normal medication routine), even when the pain has completely stopped, then if I lie down or recline at all, then a different sort of pain starts.
Avatar n tn 1. This seems to be a minor inconvenience according to some medical personnel. What if it happens once a day? 2. Would a heart pacer making sure the heart beat is never too low be of any use?
Avatar n tn I have turbinates hypertrophy that causes post-nasal drip but when I lie down I stop coughing completely and if the cough were caused by post-nasal drip it would get worse lying down.

Avatar n tn I went to a pulmonologist with the same issue, and he suggested Nexium x2 per day. Also richola cough drops and Alka seltzer chews. No advil, only tylenol. It seems to help some.

Avatar f tn This is my first year in Phoenix, have tried, cough medicines, Mucinex,Zyrtec, Claritin, 3-4 courses of antibiotics, on my 3rd course of Prilosec and now taking Anti fungal antibiotic with it.

7677085 tn?1395374075 Found out at my last ultrasound that my baby is transverse. I'm twenty nine weeks and starting to worry a bit that he/she won't turn. My daughter was head down at twenty four weeks and fully engaged in my pelvis by twenty eight. My midwife says not to worry too much but to look up spinning babies if baby is still transverse at my next appointment. BUT everything I've read on spinning babies says that the earlier the better to get them head down from a transverse lie.
Avatar f tn U have some time until she needs to be head down. By 34 to 36wks my babies dropped & were head down.
Avatar n tn I notice that my Rhinitis gets worse when I'm lying down. I find my nostrils blocked & sniffling when I lie down. I have to use my Neilmed "Lavage," Allegra, and/or Astellin when lying down, even If I did't have nasal congestion prior to lying down. Is this a concern and/or something I should mention to my Otolaryngologist?
Avatar n tn Me too no blood, maybe floating rib syndrome is what doc told me, same pains but not coughing up blood, back spasm, lung hurts when coughing.
Avatar n tn They precluded low spinal fluid pressure from the spinal block because my headaches are worse, not better, when lying down. I had MRIs on my brain and all was fine. My blood pressure got quite high and I was prescribed hypotone. I was also put on Trepiline, Tramacet and Maxalt and an amjoxycillin (as I had a UTI). 4 days later I was feeling a bit better and was discharged- still on all the above meds, and so have had to discontinue breastfeeding (am expressing milk though).
1854507 tn?1322631960 I ate a very hot chilli a week ago and the same night my stomach was on fire and bloated , and since then my upper and lower abdomen is constantly bloated tight and hot especially after I eat and when I lie down which stops me sleeping also there is no pain and just mild nausea at times ..also my stomach acid was coming up into my throat for a few days after but has reduced now but I’m now coughing up green phlegm and my nose is burning ?
1028452 tn?1537448484 -)) I had thought of something similar in how we do it when we lie in such situations....you gave an excellent example of it. The intent is valid as to why it is being done and for whom. Coming from a Christian background, this is one that I wrestled with because of the many interpretations what "lying" means and the "why". It is easy to take a verse like ...Proverbs 12:17 and the part that says....God hates liars.
Avatar m tn I have been coughing all day for the last 3 months as long as I stand up or sit down. ISome days it is better and some days it is worse. After I lie down within 10 or 20 minutes I do not get the feeling of cough and I seem fine. My doctor is quite confused. My xray was fine. I am taking anti reflux medicine and is not helping. I used sprays and did not help either. Do you know what this could be?
994239 tn?1321203620 - If you have a friend or someone with you, have him/her cup their hands and pound your back while you bend over or lie face down on the bed with your head and shoulders hanging off the side of the bed. (called percussion). It loosens phlegm and helps you to bring it up and out. - Good health to you.
Avatar n tn I later found that for 4 months I had had pneumonia which caused me to cough every night when I would lie down in bed. It was after a spell of coughing that it felt like my stomach split with a sharp pain at the upper center of my stomach. It burned badly & it felt like what I had just drank was going out that place & I could feel it travelling to the right side of my stomach. This feeling has continued ever since.
560501 tn?1383612740 I've been told to try coughing, which only rarely works for me but your mileage may vary. If it's persistent I usually use my BP cuff to see if the palpitation sensation is due to an elevated heart rate or a widened pulse pressure (I find both sensations pretty similar, especially if I'm drowsy and not fully lucid). If it's the former, I jettison my pillows and elevate my feet in an effort to reduce the tachycardia.
Avatar f tn It increases when I move. It does not get better when I lay down. Feels like I could be coming down with something. How do I know the difference between a spinal headache and a sinus headache? The pain is not REAL bad--I can live with it.
Avatar f tn I was actually looking this up today because one of my twins is transverse while the other is head down. There was a lot of info on positions for turning your baby. It would take way to long to explain on here, so check it out, a lot of it sounds promising.
Avatar m tn Our 11 year old pug started out with a cough with a small gag after. We went away for 1 week. On the day before our return he got really bloated the caretakers didn't think he got into anything. He can't lie down and we walked him as we thought he might of gotten into his dry good. Pugs don't know when to stop eating. So we thought he ate to much. Friday night Saturday. He did sleep Saturday when we got home. Sunday morning still bloated.
Avatar n tn I found out on Monday that my daughter is still in the Transverse Lie position. They expect the baby to be head down by 28 to 30 weeks, and she is still sideways at 32 wks. At my next appointment he said if the position is the same, I will go in for a scan just to double check, and then scedule a csection for 7-10 days before my due day. Anyone been there, done that and had baby flip last minute? I really don't want to have a cesarean.
