do you cough when you have allergies acting up?

Answer 1

Yes. When your airway is irritated, you have an uncontrollable urge to expel the IRRITANT!
Try a saline nasal RINSE (not a spray) A full warm water saline rinse goes in one nostril and out the other. It draws out all the gunk and shrinks the tissue (like swimming in the ocean). I've been doing it at work too.

The buffered salt doesn't 'sting' as much as plain salt water. You can use a new method like Nasopure, or the vintage, Netipot. The special bottle and salt is about $20.

You can do this a often as you like with no bad side effects.

You don’t need a prescription for this therapy. So if you live in a state like mine, they’ve pretty much “outlawed” sudafed medicine. Drug-free is really the way to go on a frequent-use basis. (I put in a link for “what” and “how” – there’s also some good info on wiki)

Answer 2

Cough, I feel, is not an immediate symptom of allergy as the likes of runny nose, heavy sneezing, skin eruptions, eyes watering, reddening of eyes,etc. which immediately indicate the onset of allergy. But even the slightest delayed treatment for this allergic-cold related problem would certainly lead to cough - which is caused by the dripping of nasal fluids onto the throat area. Then treating cough becomes tedious as it normally requires intake of antibiotics and prolonged dosages of medicines. Whereas allergy can easily be treated with anti-histamines and they are, I feel, harmless.
Sometimes attraction also causes cough. Yes, if I need to draw the attention of a person whom I'm attracted to and if she/he is unaware then I cough and make them notice me. Otherwise, cough is a curse.

My allergies sometimes trigger my asthma. Most of the time I don't have a cough...just way too much sneezing...and kleenx...

Answer 4

Yes. To the point of breaking blood vessels in my eyes and feeling like the top of my head is coming off! Singular has alleviated this for me. I also take allegra d and I have an abulterol rescue inhaler. I started shots this week. It will take about five years to build immunity, or so I'm told. Bummer.

Answer 5

My daughter has allergies, and it causes sinus drainage, which in turn causes her to cough, so yes, allergies can make you cough.

Answer 6

Others have stated placed up nasal drip might desire to be the reason, which could be, inspite of the incontrovertible fact that it might desire to be bronchial asthma too. I actual have what's noted as cough variation bronchial asthma that's led to via environmental allergic reactions, so whilst my allergic reactions are undesirable, so is my coughing using bronchial asthma. it is rather useful to bypass see an hypersensitive reaction/bronchial asthma expert to work out what is going on.
