How to stop a coughing attack in adults without medication. Universal ways to relieve an attack of dry, wet or allergic cough

Cough is unpleasant at any time of the day. But if it occurs or intensifies significantly only at night and lasts for a long time, then this is very bad. Firstly, a person is deprived of a full night's sleep, and if a child coughs, then his parents do not sleep either. Secondly, this may be a symptom of serious bronchopulmonary diseases, and therefore requires examination and treatment. Therefore, during an attack, you need to do everything to relieve the cough, and the next morning begin to find out its causes.

Non-infectious causes

The reasons why coughing attacks occur at night can be very different. The easiest way to check is whether the cough is caused by banal everyday reasons that can affect a sleeping person:

• too dry or hot air in the room, which leads to drying out of the mucous membranes;
• allergy to bedding - down or feather pillow, synthetic fabrics and so on.;
• bed mite is a tiny insect that, when it enters the respiratory system, irritates it and provokes a cough;
• incorrect head position during sleep - disrupts normal blood circulation and oxygen flow, creating the impression of lack of air;
• accumulated dust, which clogs the lungs and can become a strong allergen;
• pets, not only cats and dogs, but also any other living creatures;
• indoor plants can not only provoke an allergic cough, but also create a lack of oxygen if there are too many of them in the bedroom (in the dark the process of photosynthesis does not take place, and flowers breathe oxygen just like people).

Therefore, first of all, you need to inspect the room and make sure that there are no influences from all the factors listed above. In principle, this should be done in any case, even if you are convinced of the infectious nature of the cough. Such preventive measures will help speedy recovery for any diagnosis.

If, after you have eliminated all possible non-infectious causes of night cough, the situation has not changed, then the situation is serious, and the cough is caused not by external irritants, but by internal inflammatory processes. The mechanism for the appearance of such a cough is completely different, and it requires mandatory treatment.

Cough as a symptom

Night cough may be a symptom of not only an infectious disease, although this is most often the case. It usually appears after an untreated cold, acute respiratory viral infection, or flu in the legs. And this is a signal that everything is still not all right in the body.

For chronic bronchitis or sluggish pneumonia increased secretion thick mucus continues - in this way the body tries to extinguish inflammatory processes. During the day, it is quietly coughed up or washed off with tea (or other liquid) and enters the stomach. Constant coughing the day after illness is considered normal and is called “ residual cough" It's really not scary if it lasts no longer than 2 weeks.

When a person takes horizontal position, the mucus can no longer come out and accumulates in the bronchi or lungs, interfering with normal breathing. A reflex cough appears, with the help of which the body tries to push the mucus out.

By the way, such a cough is easy to distinguish from an allergic one - it does not occur soon after falling asleep, but in the second half of the night, closer to the morning, and requires mandatory treatment.

A night cough may be a symptom of even more serious diseases:

• heart failure;
• tumors of the lungs or larynx;
• cystic fibrosis;
• emphysema;
• bronchial asthma;
• acid reflux.

To make an accurate diagnosis, you need to undergo additional examination and a series of tests. Therefore, it is better not to self-medicate - you can waste time and allow the disease to move to a later stage.

Stop the attack

But what to do while the doctor finds out the real reason? Of course, look available methods How to calm a night cough and normalize sleep. Even if this gives a temporary effect, a rested body will have the strength to fight the underlying disease. After all, if a person does not get enough sleep, he immune defense decreases sharply.

Here is the easiest way to stop a coughing attack:

1. Change the position of the body, giving it a semi-sitting position - this will make it easier to cough up accumulated mucus.
2. Open the window, providing additional oxygen flow.
3. Drink something warm, it is better if it is milk - it softens the cough faster, but herbal or green tea and even warm water will do.
4. If you feel a lack of air, take a bronchodilator “Bronholitin”, “Gedevit”, etc.
5. Restore your breathing by slowly inhaling through your nose and exhaling through your mouth (without effort!).

When the cough calms down, you should try to fall asleep again. Soft lighting and an aroma lamp with lavender oil. It is better to replace the pillow with a higher one so that your head is in an elevated position while sleeping.

Do not forget that the only way how to alleviate the condition bronchial asthma, is the use of a special inhaler. The measures listed above will not help here, but in creating additional comfort they will be useful for such patients.

Treatment for an adult

Only a doctor can say for sure what to do to get rid of night cough forever, after making the main diagnosis. Treatment is prescribed individually and may include drug therapy, physiotherapy and proven folk remedies.

Using “grandmother’s” methods, you can try to treat a night cough on your own if it has recently appeared and was preceded by a respiratory disease.

Here are a few proven ones effective ways How to relieve cough and speed up final recovery for adults:

In addition to the recipes listed, there are other folk ways to stop a strong cough at night. The main thing is not to leave the problem unattended. And if the cough repeats from night to night, it is necessary to look for and treat the underlying cause.

The above “adult” methods are not suitable for children - they contain alcohol. You can prepare and give your child regular eggnog, warm milk, or Herb tea with honey.

Rubbing your chest makes breathing easier camphor oil(not a massage!), which warms up the bronchi, expanding them and relieving spasms, and at the same time, entering the respiratory tract, gives the effect of anti-inflammatory inhalation.

Medications

It is important to understand that if a night cough is caused by an accumulation of mucus in the lungs, then taking antitussive drugs is strictly contraindicated! They can cause bronchostasis (stagnation of mucus in the lungs), as a result of which breathing becomes difficult and inflammatory processes develop rapidly. This is why it is so important to first find out the cause of your cough.

Expectorants in the middle of the night are also not the best the best option. They help thin the mucus and facilitate its removal, but then until the bronchi are freed from mucus accumulations, the cough will not allow you to fall asleep.

It is better to take a medicine that will relieve throat irritation and bronchial spasms:

• "Pectusin";
• "Ambroxol";
• "Pectolvan";
• "Doctor Mom";
• "ACC-100".

Most of these drugs are suitable for both adults and children (only the dosage differs).

If the cause of a night cough is bronchitis or pneumonia, quick and effective treatment without antibiotics is impossible. The infection has already penetrated so deeply that it will not be possible to cope with it using folk remedies. Antibiotics wide range the actions are destructive for most pathogenic microbes, and many of them also have excellent anti-inflammatory properties. Therefore, already 2-3 days after the start of treatment with correctly selected drugs, noticeable relief occurs.

They often help to quickly cope with a cough, including a cough at night, antihistamines. Chronic inflammatory processes cause swelling of the mucous membranes, and swelling always increases at night. And if during the day it does not interfere with breathing too much, then at night it blocks the normal access of air, causing a cough. By removing it antihistamines, you can quickly alleviate the condition.

Good healing effect Physiotherapeutic procedures are also provided: ultrasound, electrophoresis, quartz, paraffin therapy, laser heating, darsonvalization. They stop inflammatory processes, activate blood circulation, stimulate immune system, significantly speeding up recovery.

Some procedures can be done at home: putting mustard plasters or vodka compress, warm the bronchi with a blue lamp or Solux, rub your feet and/or chest with warming ointment with essential oils. Performed before bedtime, such procedures, although not a direct way to calm a cough, do improve general state, speed up falling asleep and serve as an excellent prevention of nighttime coughing attacks.

It is advisable the next day after warming procedures not to perform active physical exercises and not to go outside in damp weather or sub-zero air temperatures.

During treatment, you need to protect yourself from drafts and stay away from the air conditioner on. And also make sure that the bedroom does not contain the items listed at the beginning. non-infectious causes which can cause a cough.

Children often suffer from coughing attacks due to the structural features of the larynx at an early age. However, cough is not a disease, but only a symptom of it.

In general, the topic is very important and you need to clearly understand that coughing (as a rule) is the body’s protective reaction to inflammatory process in the bronchi.
There is one VERY alarming point in the question: a “barking” cough is one of the symptoms of whooping cough. Therefore, if whooping cough has not been vaccinated, without reading to the end, immediately consult a doctor! !

The use of antitussive drugs BEFORE the proliferation stage begins is a severe blow to the body.
That's why
1. It is necessary to accelerate and facilitate the onset of the proliferation phase. Folk remedies - warm (closer to hot) milk with honey (or without) at night, any medicinal table mineral water at room temperature, you can add half a teaspoon to the milk baking soda(disgusting, but helpful).
2. You can drink not strong, thin but sweet tea(black), to which add one teaspoon of vodka (two or more are not allowed)
3. A very good ancient but proven drug is the Pertussin mixture, it is available in any pharmacy and is very inexpensive.
Having prepared ourselves in this way for a couple of days, we deal the main blow to bronchitis - prepare a potion from equal parts (a tablespoon or a little more) of honey, butter and ethyl (medicinal) alcohol.
Melt the butter in a water bath, stir honey into the warm butter, add alcohol, mix well, drink warm and bayinki.

How to relieve cough with ARVI? A severe cough during ARVI indicates the presence of infection and acts as a protective reaction. With a dry cough, protecting the body is out of the question. It only works when removing phlegm. In the first 3 days, the patient only develops a dry cough. Under no circumstances should it be suppressed with drugs that stop the reflex. Otherwise, bacteria and viruses will remain in the respiratory tract and cause an inflammatory process.

To begin with, a dry cough must be converted into a wet one so that phlegm can be easily coughed up and a sore throat will stop occurring. To do this, the patient needs to drink a lot of fluid. They help medicinal plants, which increase sputum production and expectoration. In this case, the following will be useful: flax seeds, marshmallow, mullein leaf, plantain, coltsfoot, linden. Make infusions from these herbs.

Inhalation helps in relieving cough. To avoid burning the mucous membrane of the respiratory tract, do not breathe steam over the pan. In this situation, a teapot with a paper tube will help. The water should not be hotter than 40°C. Add 5 drops of essential oil to a kettle of water. Instead of oils, you can make potato and mint infusion.

At the time of inhalation, you need to inhale the steam through your nose and exhale through your mouth. For effective inhalation When using essential oils, you will need to change them throughout the day.

When sputum production improves, you can begin procedures as with a wet cough.

As soon as you develop a cough, you should immediately consult a doctor. He will find out the cause of the symptom and prescribe the necessary course of treatment.

After all, the cause of the protective reaction of the respiratory tract may be serious illness. Never self-medicate. This will only harm your health and will make your treatment much longer and more difficult.

If you don’t have a fever, then inhalations with Prospan drops help a lot. The cough goes away gently. Even after one procedure it’s already easier. It also moisturizes the throat and relieves sore throat. The child likes the procedures and does them without coercion, on his own.

“Doctor, we don’t know what to do with the cough - we treat and treat, but it doesn’t go away.” “An emergency room? Can I have a doctor at home? The child is coughing a lot and can’t sleep.” Pediatricians hear such complaints almost more often than everyone else. What is a cough, how to deal with it and is it necessary?
First of all, coughing is a protective reaction of the body. With its help, it pushes out from the respiratory tract what the body does not need at all - from a relatively large foreign body to fine dust and microorganisms. The respiratory tract is lined with a special ciliated epithelium, which, with the help of mucus, drives everything foreign out, away from the lungs and other parts of the respiratory tract - the nose, larynx, trachea and bronchi.
Coughing - a paroxysmal contraction of muscles - helps to complete this process. If there were no cough, any banal inflammation of the upper respiratory tract would turn into pneumonia. So, a cough is necessary. But which one? Of course, the one that is accompanied by sputum production. Doctors call it productive, everyone else calls it wet.
Other types of cough - dry, barking, annoying, paroxysmal, which occurs with whooping cough - are not useful, they greatly tire the patient, interfere with his sleep, can lead to vomiting, are accompanied by muscle pain and ultimately increase respiratory failure.
That's how many unpleasant things can happen from this, in general, necessary and harmless symptom. A cough needs to be approached differently depending on its nature. All cough remedies can be divided into three main groups: the so-called mucolytics - drugs that thin sputum, expectorants - which increase cough, and soothing (*antitussives) - which reduce the activity of the cough center. In addition, some drugs have a combined effect - both mucolytic and expectorant.
In the treatment of cough, not only chemical drugs are used, but also significant amount a wide variety of herbs and homeopathic remedies. In addition, to combat its different varieties, numerous physical procedures are used - from physiotherapeutic procedures, to various distracting means (cupping, mustard plasters, rubbing) and, finally, massage chest, which is of particular importance in young children who have difficulty coughing or in patients with drug allergies.
Exists specific sequence(algorithm) in the use of cough suppressants. The task is always the same - to ensure that the cough turns from dry to wet and the child coughs up phlegm well. Let's look at specific situations.
WHOOPING COUGH
With this childhood infection, cough occurs due to the fact that the pertussis bacillus directly irritates the cough center. It multiplies in the nervous system. A person with whooping cough can cough from anything - from loud sound, bright light, anxiety.
The cough with whooping cough is very characteristic - it begins with a loud whistling inhalation, lasts in paroxysmal bursts for several minutes, and the child simply starts coughing. At the same time, he often sticks out his tongue so that his frenulum tears. With a whooping cough from terrible tension, hemorrhages can occur in the sclera of the eyes and the skin of the chest. In young children, attacks of whooping cough (repetitions) may be accompanied by respiratory arrest.
Leaving aside the prevention and treatment of whooping cough, I will only say that drugs that thin sputum and increase its secretion (mucolytics and expectorants) are absolutely useless here. Only drugs that calm the nervous system and relieve cough are appropriate here, *for example, sinecode, tussamag. By the way, this “whooping cough” character of the cough persists in patients for some time after recovery from this infection (up to 1 year) and with all common colds.
Cough is a manifestation of many diseases. Ka

Olya Voskresenskaya

Many people do not know what a cough is and how it occurs. In fact, it is a normal physiological reaction of the body, and not just a pathology, as we used to think.
Its appearance should not cause you acute anxiety or urgent use of medications. Before starting any treatment, it is necessary to find out the causes of the symptom. Remember that sometimes we even deliberately cause coughing in order to attract the attention of another person: [link blocked by decision of the project administration]

A child’s night cough prevents him from sleeping and gives no peace to his parents. They immediately have disappointing assumptions about the nature of the disease. They try to alleviate the suffering of their baby, not knowing what actually caused it. They begin to stuff him with unnecessary mixtures, which can only aggravate the situation rather than prevent it. Therefore, you first need to find out the diagnosis, and then eliminate the causative agent of the disease.

What does it come from?

For effective treatment disease, you need to understand that cough is only a symptom of the disease, and the causes of its occurrence can be the most various factors. More full picture It will appear if you listen to the child and determine what kind of cough is bothering him, after which it will be easier to find out the source of infection.

Dry cough

He is characterized by a disease of the larynx. It may also be without fever. If there is a small amount of sputum present, it means that inflammation occurs in the larynx, pharynx or trachea. The cause of a rough and severe cough is the inflammatory process of the trachea.

With a dry “barking” cough, the larynx will most likely be inflamed and these are symptoms of laryngitis. It is dangerous because in the event of a severe complication, laryngeal stenosis can occur - swelling of the upper respiratory tract, which leads to a narrowing of the lumen between them and it becomes difficult to breathe. In this case, you must immediately call a doctor; under no circumstances should you treat the baby with folk recipes. Here you can familiarize yourself with the symptoms of acute laryngitis.

A dry cough can occur with asthma, which occurs in mild form. Or maybe it’s all about the cold air of the room in which the child sleeps. During rest, it irritates the laryngeal mucosa and causes a cough.

The child developed a runny nose during the day, and during sleep, mucus began to accumulate in the nasopharynx. Because it has nowhere to go, it slides down to the larynx and provokes a cough reflex.

If the baby feels constant irritation in the throat and tingling, this indicates the occurrence of pharyngitis, which usually provokes a dry cough.

Constant attacks of dry cough at night can occur as a result of a fairly rare (due to vaccination) disease - whooping cough. Bouts of bawling occur at regular intervals and are very severe at night. Perhaps a dry cough at night indicates gastric reflux. Older children may describe a sensation similar to heartburn.

Do you know why a cough appears after eating?

• infectious diseases;
• allergic diseases;
• viruses, bacteria or unsatisfactory air conditions (for example, the room is hot or dusty).

If bacteria accumulate in the mucus, complications will arise and pneumonia will follow. To prevent this from happening, the causes of the disease must be eliminated in time.

With regular use of medications and following the instructions, the baby will soon forget about the annoying cough.
