Cough in spring may be cold or hot, and needs to be recognized according to the symptoms, because the season is not a criterion for judging cold cough and hot cough.
1. Wind-cold cough: If the patient has a cough accompanied by chills, fever, weakness and body aches, as well as a clear nose and coughing up clear phlegm, it is usually caused by wind-cold. You can follow the doctor’s instructions to take wind-cold cold granules and Xiao Chaihu granules and other drugs for treatment.
2. Wind-heat cough: If the cough is accompanied by fever, yellow pus phlegm and yellow nasal discharge, it is usually related to wind-cold cold, and can be treated with medicines such as Sangju Cold and Flu Granules and Vitamin C Yinqiao Granules. You can take medicines such as Sangju Cold Granules and Vitamin C Yinqiao Granules.
Regardless of whether the cough is cold or hot, avoid spicy and stimulating foods during coughing episodes, as these foods can irritate the tissues of the throat, thus aggravating the coughing symptoms. Eat as many fresh vegetables and fruits as you can to get the vitamins your body needs.
If you need to use medication, you need to do so under the guidance of a physician, do not self-medicate.
