I often have a dry cough, so I wonder if it's asthma...

I frequently have a lingering cough, so I went to the ENT specialist to see if it's a cold or asthma. Since I have allergic rhinitis, they said my cough tends to worsen during seasonal changes. Fortunately, it's not asthma, but my bronchial tubes are swollen due to the cough.

Asthma is a chronic respiratory disease characterized by recurrent narrowing of the bronchi caused by allergic inflammation. When the bronchi narrow, symptoms such as shortness of breath, coughing, wheezing sounds from the chest, and a feeling of tightness recur.

The causes are pollen, mold, house dust mites, cockroaches, and animal allergies.

Bronchial asthma is said to result from the interaction of genetic and environmental factors.

Some patients may only experience a cough or shortness of breath.

There are pulmonary function tests, bronchial provocation tests, and skin prick tests.

I often have a lingering cough, so I frequently eat doraji syrup and pear juice to soothe it, but sometimes, even while sleeping, I experience sudden, uncontrollable coughing fits.

I frequently have a lingering cough, and during this seasonal change when I also feel cold air, my nose itches constantly, causing me to blow my nose repeatedly, which leads to coughing up phlegm and frequently spitting saliva.

Since I often spit while walking on the street, I keep getting scolded by my family members. So I try to control myself, but because I feel suffocated, I often cough lightly and, wanting to spit it out, I keep spitting phlegm.

At the neighborhood hospital, they only prescribed anti-inflammatory medication because I frequently coughed and my bronchi swelled... but I felt it was only temporary, so I bought and am taking Yonggaksan as my own remedy. When my throat feels itchy, taking Hansupin gives me a soothing sensation, so I take it frequently.
