The weather is getting colder and colder, and I have been coughing.

Everyone coughs, for example, when catching a cold, after running, so have you noticed these casual long coughs? If you have a history of allergies, be careful. This chronic cough is likely to develop into an asthma, namely allergic cough. Allergic cough, also known as allergic cough, takes chronic cough as the main clinical manifestation, and has the characteristics of recurrent attacks and persistent healing.

Allergic cough's performance: persistent cough > 4 weeks, irritating dry cough, less phlegm; Most of the patients are children and allergic people; Most of them attack or aggravate in the early morning or midnight, and the attack is lighter during the day and heavier at night, especially after sleeping, which often leads to severe cough; After contact with allergens (pollen, animal fur, dust mites, etc.). ) or inhaling irritating gases such as cold air and lampblack, which makes the cough worse; Cough accompanied by shortness of breath, but no symptoms of cold and fever during illness; No obvious abnormality was found in chest X-ray and laboratory examination, the pulmonary ventilation function was normal and the bronchial provocation test was negative. Have a history of other allergic diseases, positive allergen skin test, and increased IgE value in serum test.

Therefore, when the child coughs for a long time, the antibiotic treatment effect is not good, and other organic diseases are ruled out, it is necessary to think about whether the child has a cough caused by allergies. Once diagnosed by examination, it is necessary to actively treat it, which can help the baby cough.

Allergic cough's symptoms

1, less dry cough

Allergic cough's main clinical symptom is a dry cough with phlegm in his throat, which is rare. Moreover, cough has the characteristics of frequent and paroxysmal attacks at night. A small amount of mild cough can be relieved after getting up in the morning, but severe cough and asthma symptoms can occur.

2, respiratory symptoms

Children may be accompanied by some respiratory symptoms, such as loud breathing and snoring during sleep, and may also have mild nasal congestion and sneezing symptoms due to respiratory infection. In addition, only a very small number of patients will have red spots on their skin, which may be complicated with specific dermatitis.

Allergic cough is very common in children's lives, mainly at night and in the morning. Cough is the most serious at this time, and some children will cough more seriously after exercise. When antibiotic treatment has no effect, it should be suspected that asthma causes cough. For the cough caused by asthma, the main drugs used should be the drugs for treating asthma. At this time, atomization can also be used for treatment to relieve the symptoms of children's cough. Asthma is a serious situation, and children need active treatment after suffering from asthma.

How to deal with the onset of allergic cough in winter;

1. Abuse of antibiotics and hormones should be avoided during treatment, and standardized treatment should be carried out by doctors to prevent allergic cough from turning into bronchial asthma or causing other adverse reactions. Western medicine can desensitize by looking for allergies; At the same time, it is advocated to use inhaled hormones, dilate bronchi, take anti-inflammatory and desensitizing drugs for combined treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that it is mainly related to "wind" and "phlegm" Good results can often be achieved by expelling wind, clearing lung, resolving phlegm and relieving cough in acute stage and removing "perennial roots" in remission stage by tonifying lung and strengthening spleen. Clinically, the combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine is the best method. Parents should avoid abusing cold medicine or antibiotics and hormones to their babies.

2, a reasonable diet Some patients always can't control their mouth, always holding the fluky psychology to deal with allergic cough. Eating food that is easy to be sensitized is easy to induce allergic cough. Allergies vary from person to person. Not all patients can't eat allergic foods such as seafood, fish and shrimp, mutton and milk. Only people who are allergic after meals should fast. Winter is the high incidence of allergic cough's diseases. Many patients don't know enough about this disease. Therefore, they neglected the treatment of the disease and caused a series of complications to the body. Therefore, patients should attach great importance to the disease, not only to prevent it in time, but also to treat it reasonably in order to restore a healthy body as soon as possible.

3. It is very important to reduce the IgE antibody in serum when treating allergic patients. At present, Xinmin Kang probiotics can reduce the production of specific IgE antibodies in serum. This new lactic acid bacteria strain can improve the antiallergic ability and regulate TH2 immune response which is overreacted due to allergy by enhancing TH 1 immune response. Swedish research has found that among children with allergic diseases, there are fewer anti-allergic probiotics in the intestines of children with allergic diseases than children with non-allergic diseases. Xinmin Kang probiotics can promote the immune response of TH 1, improve allergic symptoms and inhibit the production of IgE. It can reduce eosinophils in allergic cough's symptoms of pollen allergy and dust mite allergy.

The constitution of allergic cough patients includes subjective conditions such as "hereditary constitution", immune status, mental and psychological status, endocrine and health status, which is an important reason for allergic cough. In addition, data show that the number of allergic cough patients in cities with obvious industrialization and coastal developed areas is increasing year by year, which shows that the environmental impact on allergic cough is very obvious. Environmental factors include allergens, irritating gases, virus infection, living environment, eating habits and social factors.
