The presence of a half cough indicates that the cough is often not too severe, and it is likely that the inflammation is in the throat. If the throat is inflamed, there will be localized congestion and edema, and a certain amount of irritation, so a half cough will occur. The throat also secretes a small amount of inflammatory exudate, and the irritation is also strong, which can also lead to a half cough, and anti-inflammatory treatment is more important at this time. First of all, if the cough is not too strong, you can take oral anti-inflammatory solution of Pudilan or oral solution of Blue Scutellaria for anti-inflammation. If the cough is accompanied by pus or elevated white blood cells, it is a bacterial infection causing pharyngitis, which requires antibiotic treatment.
