Is Cough A Disease Or A Symptom?

Cough is not itself an illness but a symptom of an underlying condition or disease. It might occur if you have a cold, flu, asthma, allergies, pneumonia, bronchitis, or even some medicines that can cause a cough.       

If you suffer from a cough, you might also experience sore throat, hoarseness, chest congestion, and irritation in your throat. Some people also experience shortness of breath, wheezing and difficulty sleeping due to coughing fits.     

Once you visit an urgent care clinic, the doctor identifies the underlying disease or illness that’s causing a cough and makes a proper treatment plan to help you recover completely.

Common Symptoms Of Cold

Some common symptoms that you might experience during a cold are as follows:

cough-and-cold-urgent-care-treatment

  • Runny or stuffy nose
  • Sneezing
  • Cough
  • Mild to moderate chest discomfort
  • Sore throat
  • Headache

These symptoms arise when a virus enters your body affecting your respiratory system, which causes irritation and inflammation. However, the symptoms vary from person to person. If you experience a cold, it is important to monitor your symptoms, so go for a medical checkup if it doesn’t improve, and get yourself treated.

Causes of Cold and Cough

There are many causes of cough, such as:

  • Influenza 
  • Pneumonia 
  • Allergies
  • Asthma  
  • Viral infections, such as the common cold or flu.
  • Medicines (ACE inhibitors)

On the other hand, cold occurs due to viruses such as adenovirus, rhinovirus, influenza virus, respiratory syncytial virus, etc.

Easy Ways to Relieve Your Cough at Home

Some steps you can take at home to get quick relief from cough and cold are: 

  • Increase your intake of warm fluids
  • Add probiotics to your diet
  • Improve your sleep schedule 
  • Steam inhalation

You can also take over-the-counter medicines such as acetaminophen, expectorants, decongestants, or antihistamines if you experience cough and cold together. 

When Should You Contact a Doctor?

If your cough and cold go beyond three weeks or you have symptoms like difficulty breathing and chest pain, then it is important to go for a checkup. 

It is also crucial to see your healthcare professional if you have asthma and a weak immune system and you’re experiencing cold symptoms along with a persistent cough. 

If you are addicted to smoking, then it can worsen the condition of your health. So, consult a healthcare professional for appropriate treatment according to your condition.

Family Urgent care is a great place. I walked in without an appointment. I was seen within 15 minutes. The staff was very pleasant. The doctor listened to my problems, ran some tests and explained how to navigate the complicated healthcare system with medicaid.I had a blood test done. I have very small veins which means that usually I would have to get poked three or four times with the needle. Maya was able to hit the vein on her first try. She had such a delicate touch that I barely felt the needle and was left with no bruise on my arm. Great place, great staff.

They were outstanding. Check in was easy and quick despite being a new patient, and the care was superb. Found them in an emergency situation and they were above and beyond any provider I have found in an immediate care situation. Not too long of a wait despite being a walk in, patient & kind staff, good communication, excellent medical skills, thorough care. I will never go anywhere else for urgent care again.
