HELP WITH my sons SYMPTOMS? |
OKAY HE IS COMING OVER A COLD... HE TOOK ALL THE MEDICINE AND IS DOING GOOD EXCEPT!! HE HAS AN OCCASIONAL COUGH STILL. MOSTLY WHEN HE SLEEPS AT NAP AND NIGHT HE COUGHS MAYBE 5 TIMES IN HIS SLEEP TIL I GIVE HIM A DOSE OF COUGH MEDICINE! I TOLD THE DOCTOR HE SAID IT CAN TAKE A MONTH TO GET RID OF A COUGH! I NEVER HEARD THAT B4 IN MY LIFE WHAT DO U GUYS THINK!?
Best answer:
well I am a very sickly person myself and it usually takes me a long time to get over a cough... what seems to happen is the esophagus becomes irritated during the sickness and after the cold is gone, the throat is still irritated... so what is happening as the germs are leaving his body, he is still healing from coughing so much... it would be like a scab healing... it bled and now its healing... it usually takes me about 2 weeks to stop coughing... I find that lemon tea with honey in it helps me soothe my throat... I hope he gets to feeling better! |
