Understanding Cough

Cough is a sudden and often repetitively occurring reflex which helps to clear the large breathing passages from secretions, irritants, foreign particles and microbes.

Cough is the representation of most of the respiratory conditions. The most common cause of an acute or sub-acute cough is a viral respiratory tract infection. In adults with a chronic cough, i.e. a cough longer than 8 weeks, more than 90% of cases are due to Post-Nasal Drip, Asthma, Eosinophilic Bronchitis, and Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease.
