Online Cough & Congestion Treatment

Cough and congestion are common respiratory symptoms caused by various conditions, including infections, allergies, and environmental factors. Coughing is a natural reflex that helps clear the airways of mucus, irritants, and pathogens, while congestion occurs when the nasal passages or airways become inflamed and filled with mucus, making breathing difficult.

Acute coughs and congestion are often caused by viral infections like the common cold or flu, while chronic cases may be linked to conditions such as asthma, bronchitis, or postnasal drip. Online consultations provide fast and effective treatment options, including symptom management and medical advice, without the need for an in-person visit.

• Viral infections (e.g., common cold, influenza, COVID-19)
• Bacterial infections
• Allergies (e.g., pollen, dust, pet dander)
• Air pollution and irritants
• Chronic respiratory conditions (e.g., asthma, COPD)

• Wash hands frequently to reduce the spread of infections
• Avoid close contact with people who are sick
• Use a humidifier to keep airways moist
• Stay hydrated and maintain a healthy diet
• Avoid smoking and exposure to environmental irritants

• Persistent cough (dry or productive)
• Nasal congestion or runny nose
• Chest tightness or discomfort
• Sore throat or hoarseness
• Shortness of breath (in severe cases)

• Treatment for cough and congestion depends on the underlying cause. For viral infections like the common cold or flu, management focuses on symptom relief. This includes staying hydrated, using humidifiers, and taking over-the-counter decongestants or expectorants to help clear mucus. Steam inhalation and saline nasal sprays can also provide relief by keeping the airways moist and reducing irritation.
