Hello Anonymous,

Welcome to EmpowHER. Thank you for reaching out to our community.

But colds and flu aren’t the only problems that cause coughing. Allergies, asthma, acid reflux, dry air, and smoking are common causes of coughs. Even medications such as certain drugs for high blood pressure and allergies can cause chronic cough.

Most of the time, people can manage their coughs at home by taking over-the-counter medicine and cough lozenges, removing potential allergens, or even just standing in a steamy shower.

Consider speaking with your physician.

Regards,
Maryann
