It is impossible to say exactly which treatment is the best because the causes of coughing vary so much. If the cough is caused by an external stimulus, the cough can be reduced or disappeared after moving away from the stimulus. If the cough is caused by a disease, the original disease needs to be removed in order for the cough to be controlled.
For patients with cough, home care should be strengthened with the following measures: Keep the environment suitable to prevent the respiratory tract from being stimulated by too high or too low an ambient temperature. Family members should create a quiet resting environment for the patient to keep the patient calm and avoid mood swings that can lead to coughing. Do not smoke and avoid exposure to secondhand smoke.
