Gastro

Question

Hello, I am recovering from a gastro I started to be sick in the night of December 25 to 26 the last time I was sick was December 26 around noon. So already 30 hours without being sick, except that since I got up in the morning I cough and I'm out of breath quickly and when I cough it hurts my lungs a lot! I would like to know if I can take something or if I should let time do the rest! Please note that I am not an asmathic person. Thank you for your answer I had a fever yesterday, but today I am ok, my cough is very dry! I drink a lot of water, my stomach still hurts a bit since my last vomit

Hello, I would first like to know if you have a fever that accompanies your cough. Also, is there any secretions with the cough or is it a dry cough. It is always possible to drink more water and take a cough syrup to help regain strength. If there has been vomiting, the chest muscles may also be sore, which would cause pain when coughing. Acetamoniphene (500mg-1000mg 3-4 times a day) may help Let me know if there is anything. Thank you for your time! Gabrielle Okay! In this case, I think it's the irritated stomach that causes this cough. It can feel like reflux and it causes the cough. It will go away naturally with time, but if the symptoms are very uncomfortable, it is possible to take Gaviscon in tablet or liquid form to relieve it. Hopefully, everything will get better soon!
