694466 tn?1227677802 Hi. My name is Kayla and I had a question about my dogs health. My dog recently got home from a kennel last weekend. Since then she has been sneezing when she gets excited or runs around too much. She also has been hacking. At first I thought it was kennel cough, but heartworm also seems to be a possibility. How can I tell which it is?
Avatar n tn For the past 3 days she has been coughing, honking and has the sniffles. Last night we bought a vaporizer to help rid the symptoms. Is there anything else I should do? Bennadryl? Robotusin? How much is should we give her? Thanks.
973741 tn?1342342773 As far as I know, dogs do not catch colds. But there might be something else wrong. There is nothing wrong with a dog's nose being wet. But if she is snuffling, sneezing, coughing or breathing in a strange way it's best you check her out at the vet's. Dogs can sometimes get foreign bodies lodged in their noses, like a grass seed, etc.
Avatar f tn This set of comments is almost 10 months old, but I really wanted to say something here. I posted ages ago about our dog, and at the time I thought giving him some milk and honey for three days along with one pill of prednisone was making him well. You see, our vet, who is quite good, been with him 30 years, said Smokey's throat area was irritated, so everyday things made the dog wretch, like cigarette smoke (we both smoke), dust, etc.
Avatar f tn So i have the common cold, sneezing, runny nose, itching throat, and coughing up mucus.... My dog sleeps with me every night, n i share most of my food with her, i just wonder if she will catch my cold??
Avatar f tn (I feel like i can sneeze or cough out the baby.
871111 tn?1248992972 I certainly see alot of pugs with allergies (to food or pollen/dust), usually with symptoms such as scratching, foot licking, recurrent skin rashes and recurrent ear infections, and less commonly sneezing and reverse sneezing. It is certainly possible that your pug has an allergic cause for the ear infection and the brown stains on the jaw.
415109 tn?1304890182 There are SOME cough syrups you can give to dogs, but you have to be VERY careful of the ingredients and dosage, and it would be best to ask your vet which they recommend. Another possibility is reverse sneezing.. This does sound like choking/gasping for air, it is nothing to worry about and is triggered by allergies..
1909286 tn?1379435137 I know you are feeling like crap, but the more you sweat, and encourage your heart and lungs to work, the better you will feel. Think of the coughing, sneezing, GI flushing, sweating as your body ridding itself of poison and healing- because it is. You want to support it to do this as much as you can. Be sure to drink LOTS of water. And hey girl, I am so proud of you...You are doing this!
Avatar n tn So, almost a month into this whole ordeal and they are still coughing/sneezing on a regular basis. Numerous times a day, probably several times in an hour, at least. The puppie's gets worse at night. Am I over reacting or should I travel out of town to a different vet? Does anyone know if it takes THIS long for KC to go away? Could it be something else?
Avatar f tn s possible that he managed to inhale something and now it is stuck in his nose. Dogs have inhaled foxtails before and these can be very painful and actually need to be removed by the vet if they become stuck in the nostril. He could also have a simple case of allergies. It is September, and many of the fall plants that affect humans with allergies also affect dogs. Also, like humans, dogs can develop allergies at any time, even if they have never been affected by them before.
Avatar n tn It hurts as the sneeze starts and I uncontrollably breath in really deep (sometimes it stops the sneeze), and then after I sneeze my belly tightens up for maybe up to a minute and hurts for just a little while after. A coworker said it was braxton hicks.... Either way I'd just like to stop sneezing but I don't see that before my allergies go away for the summer.
Avatar n tn Hi, I'm 21 years old, male at around 65 kgs. My girlfriend is of the age (more on this later) I just have a few questions regarding pneumonia, and how easily (or difficult) it is transmitted in healthy young adults. Context: My girlfriend's aunt recently got hospitalized due to pneumonia, and my girlfriend has been taking care of her for about 3 days now. Now this may sound stupid and selfish, but my concern is her and me catching pneumonia too.
Avatar m tn I see a lot of people attributing the reactions people are experiencing from us is from a medical standpoint, like odor and bacteria. But has anyone here not thought about the possibility that people do 'fake' coughing and sneezing as a way to try to tell you or people around them something? Like, a form of non-verbal judgement? I always get the implication or vibe that people cough or sneeze to judge me.
Avatar f tn SHE HAS BEEN HAVING THESE SPELLS TO WHERE SHE ACTS LIKE SHE IS COUGHING BUT SHE DOES IT OUT OF HER NOSE AND MOUTH. YOU CAN SEE HER BODY KIND OF LIKE HEAVING OR CONVULSING. I TOOK HER TO MY VET AND THEY SAID SHE WAS REVERSE SNEEZING. HAVE YOU HEARD OF THIS. HE ALSO SAID TO GIVE HER A HALF OF A BENEDRYL. WHAT DO YOU THINK SHE GOES TO THE VET REGULARY AND IS UPDATED ON ALL SHOTS AND TREATMENTS SHE SOMETIMES HAS ALLERGIES. LAST NIGHT THIS EPISODE LASTED ABOUT 1 MINUTE IT WAS VERY SCARY.
Avatar f tn s rather common in dogs! Dogs can live many ,many years on medications just like humans can.....Meds. to improve function of the heart & also lasix to clear fluid from the lungs......An EKG or ECG can detect what part of the heart is having a problem.....They usually run around $100.....Some Vets will suggest this test, some will not...They will just go ahead and treat... Next- Kennel Cough- This is a virus and antibiotics will do nothing.....
Avatar f tn As veterinarians we see a lot of similar cases each week in practice and it is likely allergies. The coughing comment is quite worrisome, though. Coughing is usually not related. Please see your veterinarian again and have him or her listen closely to his chest and take chest xrays. I hope a problem is not found, but respiratory problems are not something to wait around on.
5154295 tn?1372284196 I haven't got the pain from coughing but I've gotten it from sneezing.
Avatar m tn m a 27 year old male and have worked in front of a computer for many years now. I related the headaches and pain to eye strain and tension headaches. I had an eye exam, my vision was still great but the doctor did prescribe me some computer glasses. So far, this hasnt seemed to help much. My neck does get tight and my wife who is a massage therapist, performs deep tissue massages on me and it does help relive the headaches, but not the overall pressure I experience.
Avatar f tn There is no blood in her stool or urine, no coughing or sneezing, and no vomiting; also, her gums seem a normal pink. The only real symptoms are that she is very lethargic (progressively worse), and no appetite. She also seems to be drinking a normal amount of water, but usually only when one of us takes her to the bowl (at which time she drinks a lot).
Avatar m tn Cause the pain in my right leg is alot while sneezing and coughing and i find it very hard to sit on sofas and any cahir "designed for comfort" . I am unable to touch my toes when i bend down (my hands reach only till my knees) . And I am unable to keep my right leg straight . I've also had 4 kidney stones in the past month . Could a kidney stone cause this kind of back pain ? Could you kindly advice me for the above problem ?
Avatar f tn I had an L5/S1 microdisectomy 9 days ago and still struggling with some pain in my buttocks and leg (although not to the same level as before). I’m not sure if I should rest or excercise. In particular I get intense sciatic pain whilst sneezing and coughing. Is this normal? I’m worried that the surgery has not been a total success.
Avatar f tn You're going to be sore down there eventually regardless lol. I'm 22 weeks and baby weighs a pound and sometimes it HURTS lol she gets like in my pelvis and OW. Everything is stretching so soreness is normal. And yes, sneezing and coughing can make you sore lol. Even if you don't have coughing fits and pull a muscle, you're already tender so a cough or sneeze can yank a ligament and hurt a bit.
Avatar f tn thank you both !
Avatar f tn ve had a cold for the past week and must have pulled a dozen stomach muscles coughing and sneezing. Not sure if it affects going into labour, probably no such luck!
Avatar f tn I became sick with a simple chest cold last week and for the first time in my life, the constant coughing and sneezing is killing my back. I'm shocked at the pain its producing. My back now feels inflammed and it hurts to walk normal. I'm just riding my cold out to see if my back pains in my fusion area goes away. Anyone else experience back pain when coughing or sneezing?
