On January 3, the joint prevention and control mechanism of the State Council held a press conference. Qi Wensheng, director of the emergency department of Guang'anmen Hospital, China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, introduced that we know that coughing is a protective reflex of the body, so coughing is mainly to clean up foreign bodies and secretions in the respiratory tract. It is a protective reflex.
From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, the late stage of COVID-19 is mainly caused by the remaining evils and the injury of righteousness.
For example, if the phlegm heat is not cleared, the lung yin is injured, the function of the lung's ventilating, ventilating, descending and descending is out of balance, and the cough remains.
A cough like this often has symptoms of less sputum, white color, sticky texture, or itchy throat.
Therefore, clinical treatment also starts from these two angles. One is to strengthen the body, which means nourishing yin and nourishing the lungs, and the other is to eliminate pathogenic factors, clear away heat and resolve phlegm.
Some Chinese patent medicines have good effects, such as Jizhi Syrup, Yangyin Qingfei Pills, and Xingbei Zhike Granules. These Chinese patent medicines have good therapeutic effects.
The reporter also asked just now whether a prolonged cough or aggravated cough will cause pneumonia. It can be clearly said that cough itself will not cause pneumonia. Phlegm, and a severe decrease in appetite.
If you have symptoms of pneumonia and cough, you should go to the hospital in time to avoid delaying the treatment.
In addition, if there is an elderly person or a child in the family, if he cannot express himself clearly and develops a cough, we need to check his mental state. If the elderly is depressed, his appetite decreases, and the child has shortness of breath or even cyanosis of the lips. It's not a very good situation, and you should be sent to the doctor in time.
