About Coughology
Overview of Cough
While you may be coughing up a lot of mucus, the person next to you may be coughing up dry or tickly mucus.
Many coughs are caused by infectious diseases, such as the flu or common cold, but some are not.
The treatment for your cough will be determined by the type of cough and its cause.
Understanding cough?
Normally, the throat and lungs produce a tiny quantity of mucus to keep the airway moist and form a thin covering layer that acts as a protective barrier against irritants and pathogens that you may inhale. Some infrequent coughing helps in mobilizing mucus and has no negative impact on your health. Coughing also enables the rapid expulsion of any unwanted particles that you may have accidentally inhaled.
Coughing, on occasion, is a natural and healthy bodily function. Nerves in your throat and airways detect irritants and work to eliminate them. This reaction is virtually rapid and quite effective. Although coughing can indicate a dangerous illness, it usually resolves on its own without the need for medical intervention.
Do you know the cough ettiquettes?
Before coronavirus, it was normal to go to work or school with a mild cough or runny nose. But these days, the slightest sniffle is bound to raise alarm from those around you.
Here’s what you need to know if you find yourself coughing or sneezing around others.
Why Coughology?
Not everyone wants to visit the doctor for a minor cough, which ideally one should, because self-medication isn’t good. Coughs are not usually seen as a health concern that necessitates medical attention. Coughology is an endeavor to educate people about the science behind coughing and to explain that coughing should not be taken lightly and must be handled appropriately.
