Hoarseness with coughing is considered when the patient has acute pharyngitis. In case of acute pharyngitis, patients are advised to go to the hospital for routine blood tests. If the white blood cells and neutrophils are elevated, bacterial infection is considered. In case of bacterial infection, a broad-spectrum antibiotic treatment is recommended. If the patient does not have allergic medications, antibiotics of cephalosporins or penicillins can be given for treatment. If the patient is hoarse and has a cough, nebulization treatment can be administered, and proprietary Chinese medicines for throat clearing and pharyngeal benefit, such as Pudilan Anti-inflammatory Tablets and Blue Scutellaria Oral Liquid, can be taken. Patients with cough, if accompanied by coughing phlegm, can use cough and phlegm-relieving drugs, such as Huifenin. Patients with hoarseness accompanied by cough are advised to eat a light diet, not to eat spicy and stimulating food, quit smoking, quit drinking, and at the same time not to use their voice excessively, and are advised to take a break from talking. If the hoarseness and cough are prolonged and not relieved after treatment, patients are advised to go to the hospital for examination of electronic laryngoscope, chest X-ray, chest CT and other examinations in time to clarify the diagnosis after further examination and treatment.
