    If the cough lasts for a long time, you can go to the hospital for a check-up at this time, you can take a chest X-ray or do a sputum culture to check for pneumonia. Under normal circumstances, if there is pneumonia, there will be cough, yellow sputum, and at the same time, it will be accompanied by fever, chest pain and other symptoms, which need to be treated symptomatically. It's best to check it out, and make it clear that ** will be carried out later**, and you can't blindly conclude that it is pneumonia just because of the severe cough.

    The general cough may also be caused by a cold, and it is recommended to take some anti-inflammatory drugs to carry it out**. At the same time, pay attention to rest, do not overwork, actively exercise, enhance physical fitness, and improve your own resistance.

    The worsening of cough is not necessarily the worsening of pneumonia, the symptoms are more obvious than coughing, in the case of pneumonia is dyspnea, shortness of breath or wheezing, while pneumonia only causes cough to worsen when expectoration is not good, and cough may worsen when pneumonia is about to improve. Because after the acute development of pneumonia is controlled, it is necessary to discharge sputum, and the lesion needs to be drained from the lungs, this process will produce a large amount of expectoration, and there will be a cough in this process. However, if the phlegm is sticky or the diet is thicker at that time, and if you eat some hot or early supplements, it may cause the phlegm to become very sticky and difficult to discharge, in this case, it will cause cough, not that the pneumonia is aggravating, but because the phlegm is not smooth, if you use cough medicine, it will be troublesome, and the phlegm will be even more difficult to discharge.

    The main symptoms of pneumonia are fever, cough, sputum production and other manifestations, and some patients may have hemoptysis, chest pain, chest tightness and other symptoms. A small percentage of patients may have only fever and no respiratory symptoms such as cough or sputum production. There is a small number of patients if the pneumonia is relatively severe, that is, severe pneumonia, will have symptoms of dyspnea, such patients are very critical, need to be timely**, otherwise the disease will further progress, because of respiratory failure and death.

    For pneumonia, chest x-ray or CT of the lungs is done, because other lung diseases, such as tuberculosis, may also cause symptoms of pneumonia and need to be differentiated by imaging tests.

    Pneumonia is not caused by a prolonged cough, the cough itself is a self-protective reflex of the human body's functions, and in the process of expectoration, it can take away some bacteria and microorganisms, as well as other foreign bodies in the respiratory system.

    When there is inflammation in the respiratory tract, purulent secretions are secreted through coughing, and this protective action can expel secretions through the trachea. Cough can be caused by hundreds of reasons, such as cold, acute bronchitis, bronchitis, pneumonia, tuberculosis, tumors, etc., cough is just one symptom of pneumonia. In addition, pneumonia will also have fever, chest pain, shortness of breath, and other severe symptoms, and blood in the sputum, which can lead to the causes of pneumonia, mainly in the following two situations:

    The first case is pneumonia, which is caused by pathogens such as viruses and bacteria mycoplasma, etc., which infect the lungs and cause pneumonia. This kind of pneumonia looks like a cold, but it is slower than the general cold recovery, manifested as a cough and fever for a long time, after a period of time is still not recommended to get better, the second situation is that the patient has only a common cold at the beginning, due to the reduced resistance, there is a source of infection in the environment that leads to the child's angry infection, which is transformed into pneumonia in either case is not due to a prolonged cough, which leads to pneumonia.

    It is impossible for a cough to cause pneumonia on its own. Because the cough is treated as pneumonia. Many people have eaten a lot of unjust drugs, and caused potential safety hazards of medication, but without the doctor's diagnosis, unauthorized medication may delay the condition and cause adverse drug reactions.

    The method of simply distinguishing between a cold and pneumonia is not reliable, and it is impossible to judge pneumonia by itself if it has a pathological basis for imaging. If you want to prevent pneumonia, in addition to improving your own immunity, you can choose to inject lung and vaccines in autumn and winter.

    Cold and cough can cause pneumonia if it does not heal for a long time, and cold and cough are generally due to the continuous invasion of bacteria or viruses, which belongs to the inflammatory reaction of the mucosa of the upper respiratory tract, usually manifested as fever, chest pain, etc. Cough is the most common manifestation of pneumonia, usually caused by viruses, fungi and other microorganisms, and for people with poor immunity, if not timely, it is easy to cause the downward spread of inflammation and lead to bronchitis, and then there will be lung infection, which will lead to pneumonia.

    Many people have the misconception that if the cough is not cured for a long time, it is likely to cause the onset of pneumonia.

    Can a cough turn into pneumonia if it lasts for a long time?

    In fact, this concept is completely wrong, the cough of the common cold will not cause pneumonia in people, if the symptoms of pneumonia suddenly appear after coughing for a period of time, it may be because of the pneumonia caused by some other virus.

    Moreover, not only does cough not cause pneumonia, but it can even be said that many coughs with very intense symptoms that do not heal for a long time are caused by pneumonia. As we all know, the lungs are an important organ for human respiration, and without it, people cannot breathe, so if a person suffers from pneumonia, there is a high probability that they will show symptoms of coughing.

    So, why does cough sometimes last a long time? In fact, most of the long-term cough in life is caused by people's lack of attention to diet, improper diet will cause cough to be difficult to complete, and even aggravate the symptoms of cough.

    First of all, it is important to emphasize that pneumonia is not caused by a prolonged cough. The cough itself is a self-protective reflex of the body, which can carry away some bacteria and microorganisms during expectoration.

    According to experts, when there is inflammation in the respiratory tract, purulent secretions will be produced, and the secretions can be expelled through the trachea through the protective action of coughing. Cough can be caused by hundreds of causes, such as colds, acute bronchitis, bronchitis, pneumonia, tuberculosis, tumors, etc.

    Cough is only one symptom of pneumonia, in addition, pneumonia can also have symptoms such as fever, chest pain, shortness of breath, and in severe cases, blood in sputum.

    The causes of pneumonia, in a nutshell, are mainly the following two conditions:

    1) In most cases, pneumonia is caused by infection by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria, mycoplasma, etc., which infect the human body and cause inflammation in the lungs, resulting in pneumonia. This pneumonia is contracted in the first place.

    This type of pneumonia looks like a cold, but it recovers more slowly than a normal cold, and is characterized by a cough and fever that lasts for a long time and does not improve after a period of time.

    2) There is also a situation where the child only gets the common cold at first, but due to the reduced resistance of the child, or the existence of an infectious source in the surrounding environment, the child is secondarily infected and transformed into pneumonia.

    But in either case, it is not a prolonged cough that causes pneumonia, coughing is a self-protection action, and this action itself does not cause pneumonia.

    Whether the cough is treated in time has nothing to do with whether it will cause pneumonia, but when the pneumonia is cured, the cough symptoms caused by pneumonia will be cured.

    The misunderstanding that pneumonia is treated as a cough not only makes many people take unjust medicine, but also may bring potential safety hazards to medication. Medication without a doctor's diagnosis may delay the condition or cause adverse drug reactions.

    Experts remind that when coughing, you must go to the hospital for examination, and find the best medicine for the case under the judgment of the doctor. A simple way to distinguish between a cold and pneumonia on your own is not reliable. Pneumonia should have a pathological basis for imaging, and it is impossible to judge it by yourself.

    If you want to prevent pneumonia, in addition to improving your own immunity, you can choose to get a pneumonia vaccine in autumn and winter.

    Cough is a common clinical symptom of respiratory diseases, and there are respiratory tract infectious factors and non-infectious factors that cause cough. When pneumonia occurs, its main clinical symptom is cough. Pneumonia causes coughing, but coughing does not cause pneumonia.

    However, when pneumonia occurs with cough, it is usually necessary to give effective anti-infection**, with necessary symptomatic treatment such as cough suppressant, expectorant, and nebulization. As the degree of infection from the inflammation of the lungs decreases, the degree of cough decreases or disappears.

    Neonatal pneumonia is not uncommon, and it is a contagious disease, usually caused by various factors soon after birth.

    Fever and cough are usually suggestive of a respiratory infection, but not pneumonia, and imaging should be the gold standard. If the patient does not have a fever, but only has the symptoms of cough, it does not mean that the patient does not have a lung infection, because some elderly people, people with weak immunity or infants and young children, the reflexes are not established, or relatively weak, they may not have the symptoms of fever, but only show systemic symptoms, such as malaise, loss of appetite, weight loss, fatigue, and muscle aches. At this time, it is necessary to go to the hospital in time to check the chest CT to find out if there is any infection, such as lung infection.

    Everyone gets sick, especially the elderly and children, who are relatively weak. The elderly and children have poor immunity and poor intestinal function, so they can get sick after catching a cold or eating unhealthy food. Cough is often caused by upper respiratory tract infection, and if it is not done in time, it may lead to bronchitis and pneumonia.

    So, why do pneumonia patients cough badly at night?

    The main manifestation of pneumonia is coughing. Cough up phlegm, fever, and so on. There are also some patients who will have chest pain and breath-holding, and pneumonia coughs badly at night mainly because the body's sympathetic nerves are more excited at night, so it will cause the cough to worsen.

    At this time, it is necessary to take some symptomatic drugs to avoid the severity of pneumonia.

    The cough is also related to humidity and temperature, and it is colder at night, especially in winter, when the air is dry, so the cough will be more severe. It is recommended to maintain the temperature in the room and put a humidifier in the bedroom, which can relieve the problem of coughing. In addition, if you have a bad cough, you can raise the pillow to make it more comfortable.

    In general, coughing at night with pneumonia is caused by excited nerves or dry air. After the pneumonia is detected, it is necessary to be treated in time, and the diet should be lighter. You can usually eat some foods that moisten the lungs and relieve cough, such as pear soup and white fungus soup.
