| A chronic cough is a cough that lasts longer than eight weeks and can result from various respiratory and non-respiratory conditions. Common causes include allergies, asthma, chronic bronchitis, and postnasal drip due to sinus issues. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), smoking, and respiratory infections can also trigger persistent coughing. In some cases, medications like ACE inhibitors or underlying conditions such as COPD, lung infections, or environmental irritants may be responsible. Accurate diagnosis is essential for effective management. Medicover Hospitals provides comprehensive evaluation to identify the cause of chronic cough and offer appropriate treatment. |
