THERE ARE SO MANY TYPES OF COUGHS: –

• ASTHMATIC COUGH
• WHOOPING COUGH
• VIRAL COUGH

ASTHMATIC COUGH (Child)

Asthmatic Cough has a characteristic low energy. It is a weak cough. Lungs do not gather enough air to produce enough sound while coughing. Now this low sounding, congested, somewhat squeezed like cough, may not sound unsafe to untrained ear. So, remember, weak and low sounding cough – riskier is the health situation and this is a case where no home remedial actions should be taken – simply take the child to hospital. Anyone, who is untrained to identify Asthmatic Cough and has an opinion to it other than taking the child to hospital, might be allowing further aggravation in the condition that may become threatening. Your job is to pick the child up in your arms, keep child’s head on your shoulder and legs hanging downwards. Keep him like this until you reach closest hospital’s emergency room. Do not make the child lie down face-up in your car.

WHOOPING COUGH (Child)

Whooping Cough is also called pertussis. Whoop is identified when after the cough, the patient inspires the air into lungs rather quickly, in a gasp, this quick inspiration makes a sound that is called WHOOP and correspondingly the cough is mentioned as Whooping Cough. It is fast aggravating health issue and may become threatening. Child face change colors in Whooping Cough. It may show patches of yellow and reds, may show dark and deep red hue, makes face Blue and Black (when oxygen levels drop further).

Child coughs and you see change in face color, get up and reach closest hospital. Your job is to pick the child up in your arms, keep child’s head on your shoulder and legs hanging downwards. Keep him like this until you reach closest hospital’s emergency room. Do not make the child lie down face up in your car.

Whoop is identified when after the cough, the patient inspires the air into lungs rather quickly, in a gasp, this quick inspiration makes a sound that is called WHOOP and correspondingly the cough is mentioned as Whooping Cough. We can see two clear parts of the whooping cough.

Child face changes color. If you do not have any medical knowledge and some emergency medicines, be quick to reach hospital.

ALLERGIC COUGH (Child)

Allergic Cough begins with some itchy acidic fluid developing behind the nose and streaking down the back of nose, into the upper throat. At initial stages, it produces loud sounding cough, with the child showing the tongue. We need to control or preferably cure it at this initial stage, because it is not uncommon that most of the soft mucus membranes of whole of the throat begins to produce lot of mucus very soon. This mucus may or may not produce retching, sometimes child do vomit out accumulated mucus with relief in breathing difficulty. Only laymen would wait for this stage to develop.

Second stage of the cough would produce mucus rattles, this rattling cough could be hoarse rattles or fine rattles. If we glance at the central pit of throat, we see it is sucked inside while the child inspires, but such caving in of pit of throat is only visible in thin scrawny children, if the child is rotund, obese with more fat around the neck or less distance between the chin and the pit of throat, that caving in would not be visible. So never waist time by delving into visual diagnostics – let the professionals handle it. Your job is to pick the child up in your arms, keep child’s head on your shoulder and legs hanging downwards. Keep him like this until you reach hospital’s emergency room. Do not make the child lie down face up in your car. Although one of the best postures is face down on seat, one of the temples resting on seat, knees folded towards belly, but that posture may be difficult to achieve if not practiced earlier. So, keep his head high and if the child has been earlier prescribed with anti-allergic by your registered physician, no harm in giving a dose on your way to hospital. Once you reach, tell the doctors about that prescribed medicine and suggested dose.
