It is not recommended to eat lobster when a cough occurs. First of all, lobster is a fishy food, and from the point of view of Chinese medicine, it is said that fish produces fire and meat produces phlegm, so eating lobster will have an inflammatory effect and aggravate the inflammation, which in turn will aggravate the symptoms of cough. In addition, lobster is made to be spicy, and during a cough, spicy, stimulating foods should never be eaten, which can also aggravate the symptoms of coughing. If you eat food that is difficult to digest, it is easy to increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract, leading to indigestion, such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain and diarrhea, which is also not conducive to cough recovery.
