Some patients with allergic cough may develop skin allergies and need to take antihistamines to treat it. Nebulized glucocorticoids and other medications can improve airway inflammation. If the allergens are identified, such as pollen, dust, dust mites, seafood, etc., it is advisable to avoid contact with these allergens as much as possible. A light diet should be maintained by avoiding overly spicy, stimulating, and greasy foods, such as chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, and grilled meats, as these can exacerbate allergies and are not conducive to recovery. It’s important to stay hydrated and eat plenty of fresh vegetables and fruits, such as apples, oranges, and pears.

"What are the usual allergens for allergic cough?"

Allergic coughs can potentially be triggered by certain factors, such as exposure to allergens; common indoor allergens include dust mites and some fungi. Sometimes, contact with sensitizing substances can cause allergies, with common allergens including grain dust, pollen, flour, and animal fur. Additionally, some patients may experience allergic coughs triggered by exposure to certain medications, foods, and additives. Allergic coughs can also be caused by respiratory infections. Exposure to tobacco, air, and environmental pollution can also affect some patients, with common sources including cooking fumes from gas, smoke from cigarettes, and insecticide sprays. Therefore, patients with allergic coughs should avoid these risk factors and properly use inhaled corticosteroids to manage their condition.

What are the allergens for allergic cough?

Allergic cough can be triggered by many allergens. For example, during pollen allergy seasons, one may react to pollen, and it is also possible to react to dust mites, dust, animal dander, paint, feed, and foods that may include allergens like seafood, eggs, and milk. Cold air can also trigger reactions in patients with allergic cough. When individuals with allergic cough come into contact with the aforementioned allergens, it may enhance the reactivity of their airways, causing persistent spasmodic contraction. As a result, patients may experience persistent, irritating dry coughs. In such cases, it is advised to promptly remove oneself from exposure to the allergens and take antihistamines orally, such as loratadine. It is also advisable to avoid contact with these allergens routinely to prevent the onset of allergic cough. (Please follow the doctor's prescription when using medications.)
