Natural Cure For Cough

There are many different types of cough, but mainly divided in two types.

Dry cough

Dry coughs are nonproductive and irritating. They’re generally initiated by an irritating tickle and emit very little or no mucus(sputum). A dry cough may grow towards the end of a cold or after exposure to an irritant, such as dust or smoke.

Wet cough

Wet coughs are productive. They eliminate congestion by expelling phlegm or mucus (sputum) that was collected in your throat or chest area. A wet cough usually should not be suppressed-it clears mucus from the lungs.

Causes of cough

The most popular causes of an acute cough contain:
The typical cold
Acute sinusitis
Pertussis (whooping cough)
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Allergic rhinitis
Non-allergic rhinitis
For a cough that has survived for between three and eight weeks, the most typical causes are:
Post-infectious cough
Acute sinusitis
Asthma
phlegm soaking down the throat from the back of the nose (nasal drip)
GERD (gastro-esophageal reflux disease)
Less common causes of chronic cough include Tuberculosis(TB), a clot in the lung pulmry embolism, or tuberculosis.
