Luo Shikuan (Otolaryngologist) has a long cough, but it can be improved by this stretching exercise to make the blocked respiratory tract unblocked. Cough is a protective reaction to remove tracheal secretions, pus, blood and even saliva, soup, gastric acid reflux and any foreign bodies to keep the respiratory tract unobstructed. Once you start coughing, you need to analyze all the related symptoms, find out the causes and treat them. My clinical experience is that cough is mostly related to infection. The stronger the cold virus, the easier it is to cause inflammation and swelling of bronchial mucosa, especially influenza virus, which is very easy to be complicated with secondary bacterial infections in the lungs such as mycoplasma, streptococcus, streptococcus pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Legionella and tuberculosis. At this point, the patient's bronchus is inflamed and he must start expectoration. In severe cases, it may even cause lung infiltration and pneumonia, which is directly life-threatening. Among them, the two most common secondary bacterial infections are mycoplasma and streptococcus. Patients with cold and cough accompanied by acute sinusitis and yellow pus and runny nose should first consider whether there is streptococcus infection; But there are no symptoms of sinusitis, mainly cough-especially those who start coughing two or three days after catching a cold, so mycoplasma infection should be considered. As for those who usually feel something stuck in their throat, dry cough once or twice, and occasionally have a little phlegm, they are often diagnosed as chronic pharyngitis or gastroesophageal reflux when they go to see a doctor. Although the diagnosis is basically correct, the real cause is often mycoplasma infection. My experience has found that it is not easy to get well after taking anti-inflammatory drugs, such as enzymes, expectorants, or stomach emulsion tablets plus drugs to inhibit intestinal peristalsis. After studying the combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine, I noticed a surprising phenomenon: as long as there are no mycoplasma invaders in red blood cells, there are almost no cough symptoms, even if the cough is short and mild, it usually disappears quickly with the relief of acute symptoms; Unless it is a secondary streptococcus pneumoniae infection, severe symptoms will occur, but this is definitely a rare case. For ten years, I have been continuously monitoring the blood of cough patients, and found a phenomenon: the number of mycoplasma in human red blood cells and the tolerance of immune system to mycoplasma can roughly determine whether cough symptoms of bronchial infection will occur after a cold. Almost all patients with repeated cough, phlegm and long-term incurability have mycoplasma infection in their blood. Clinically, no matter whether severe cases are accompanied by other bacterial infections or not, the cough problem of patients will be greatly improved as long as mycoplasma can be eliminated at the same time. When coughing, you must breathe smoothly. I mentioned the necessity of "letting cough" in my last article, but if I want to expel phlegm, my breath must be smooth when I cough. Examining the thoracic vertebrae of patients with long-term cough, most of them can find obvious lateral bending compression, and pressing a large number of acupoints between the scapula and the thoracic vertebrae has pain, which is called "qi deficiency". Never ignore the spine problem, which may be one of the real root causes. In order to solve the problem, we must stretch, stretch and exercise seriously to make the spinal nerve conduction return to normal as soon as possible; Generally, light people don't need to take medicine at all, just rest and keep fit, and heavy people can get twice the result with half the effort. Almost all elderly patients have scoliosis, compression and other problems. What they need most is physical extension and * * *. No matter which treatment method is adopted, as long as it can be done, the effect can usually be seen, the response to drug treatment and any health care therapy can be significantly improved, and it is easier to get rid of cough and improve the overall health status.

From now on, do morning exercises with primary school students! Please develop proper exercise habits. It is a good choice to walk more, such as climbing gentle slopes and walking in rural fields or parks. Besides, it's time for you to be a child again! Get up every morning, it is best to do morning exercises for primary school students, especially stretching, straightening the waist, closing the chin and expanding the chest to draw a big arc, so that inhalation can gather energy and exhalation can disperse energy. As long as you move your body in this way, you can fully stretch your bones and muscles, breathe smoothly, and help the inflamed and blocked respiratory tract return to normal. If it goes well, it can be easily expectorated, which will naturally accelerate recovery. I once met a middle-aged man who came to see a doctor because of a bad cough. Two or three months ago, he fell in a car accident while riding a motorcycle, causing long-term back injuries. After careful examination, it was found that the patient's posture was obviously incorrect and there must be scoliosis. But after being injured in a car accident and coughing for a long time, it should be inconvenient to stretch for a while. So I asked the nursing staff to teach him stretching and lacing, and let him operate by himself first. Two or three minutes later, he told me that he was treating other patients: "Why do I suddenly feel that my throat is not so itchy?" It's just stretching. Even the waist is not so sour. It's amazing! So I replied to him: "You should have the habit of regular exercise, and be strong and of good quality. It's just that you were injured in a car accident and unfortunately just hit the thoracic and lumbar vertebrae, and you coughed because of a cold ... under such a double influence, you have been working hard for some time. I believe that as long as you continue to stretch your muscles and take medicine for a few days, your cough should be fine, and your waist injury will get better together. When coughing, the most important thing is to resolve phlegm, so that phlegm can be easily coughed up. There are many ways to resolve phlegm, and wearing a mask to humidify and resolve phlegm is the simplest and most direct method. Many patients refuse to wear masks and can't improve their lives. They just want to rely on powerful and effective antitussive and anti-inflammatory drugs to treat it, but they only suppress the superficial symptoms and do not solve the fundamental problem. Respiratory tract humidification, phlegm-resolving and softening solution Any water mist inhalation treatment can directly soften respiratory tract sputum. Since I became an otolaryngology resident, I have often been associated with steam or inhalation therapy, such as acute throat infection and pain, asthma, pneumonia and dry throat and pain caused by radiotherapy in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients ... This therapy has immediate effects. No wonder almost all otolaryngologists have steam sprayers and bronchial inhalers. Therefore, drinking hot water, hot tea and hot soup is also very good, which can moisten the throat, lungs and phlegm! In addition, wearing a mask at ordinary times, in addition to self-isolation to avoid infection, can also effectively moisturize the respiratory tract, killing two birds with one stone, which is absolutely helpful to the condition. Patients who cough for a long time after DIY steam inhalation can help resolve phlegm through DIY steam inhalation. Please prepare a tall and long cup and put in hot herbal tea, such as chamomile, lemon grass, mint leaves, honeysuckle and so on. Keep your face as close as possible to the mouth of the cup and inhale deeply the fragrance of flowers and plants containing essential oil continuously; Take a sip, while inhaling moist and fragrant air, and do both. It's the same in the shower. Don't forget to take a deep breath and inhale the steam. It would be better if you could take a bath, but be careful. In addition, I also encourage the post-shower method, which washes the back of the head to the shoulder and back with hot water, which can quickly warm all the yang veins of the body-colds and coughs are all exogenous cold and belong to deficiency cold. When the yang is insufficient, washing the yang pulse can just replenish the qi pulse. If the gas field is unobstructed, the cold and cough will be easily cured. If you can do three-temperature steam bath, of course, it is very good. Direct inhalation of tolerant high-temperature steam can not only sterilize, but also humidify and expectorate. But if you use the oven, you must pay attention to the time-although it can effectively increase blood circulation and help sweating and detoxification, the dry and hot air in the oven is not conducive to expectoration, so the time spent in it is short. The atomizing inhalation machine has the best effect of humidifying and resolving phlegm, and it would be more ideal if one can be prepared for patients with chronic cough. In addition, essential oil is also very helpful, but it can only be used in a small amount. Regular use of peppermint essential oil, lemon essential oil, eucalyptus essential oil and Australian tea tree essential oil ... Using the essential oil machine can effectively disinfect the whole room and reduce the probability of family members being infected, which is also a good choice.
