After a cough, the taste of iron in your mouth

Cough with a taste of blood in the mouth

Cough is the most common symptom of upper respiratory tract diseases. In this case, patients often complain that they feel a taste of blood in their mouths with a strong cough or after it.

What caused the unpleasant taste of iron in the mouth after a cough and is it worth worrying about it?

Sometimes the metallic aftertaste in the mouth after a cough occurs because the larynx tends to burst small capillaries - in this case there is no cause for concern.

But if there are streaks of blood or even clots in sputum that go away when you cough, it's worth visiting a doctor.

When it's worth worrying

Even the doctor can not immediately tell why the cough in the sputum appears an admixture of blood, and the mouth has a metallic taste. This requires a thorough and thorough medical examination.

If the admixture of blood is insignificant and the general condition of the patient is stable, you can make an appointment with a family doctor and go to the hospital yourself.

But there are certain situations when emergency medical care is needed. To call a brigade of "first aid" costs in such cases:

• When coughing suddenly in sputum there are veins or obvious traces of liquid blood;
• Cough accompanied by suffocation and pain in the chest;
• Before the cough appeared, an unpleasant metallic taste in the mouth and an impurity of blood in the sputum, there was a trauma;
• Sputum with blood and metallic taste in the mouth appeared on their own, coughing did not occur;
• Cough and sputum with a trace of blood arose from an inveterate smoker;
• Metal taste in the mouth does not pass for several days.

First of all, you need to exclude minor damage to the mucosa in the mouth - with scratches a person also feels the taste of iron. But there is no cough. In all other cases, see a doctor immediately.

Why there is a metallic taste when coughing

The main reasons for which there may be an admixture of blood in the sputum or metallic aftertaste in the mouth after a cough are:

• Oncological diseases of the lungs - blood in sputum with this bright red color, in addition symptoms such as severe pain behind the sternum, attacks of suffocation, increased sweating in the night time;
• Croupous pneumonia is an inflammation in the lung tissues, which is caused by pneumococci;
• Tuberculosis of the lungs is an infectious disease with a negative prognosis caused by a tubercle bacillus;
• Bronchitis - with such pathology in sputum, in addition to blood veins, pus can be seen, cough lasts more than three months and is not amenable to drug treatment;
• Bronchoectatic disease - in this case, the patient is also concerned about a prolonged cough, after which the mouth feels iron smack, and in the sputum blood is noticeable, fever, weakness;
• Abscess of the lung. This pathology is a complication of pneumonia with a strong weakening of immunity. The patient, when coughing, senses the taste of iron in the oral cavity, and the surrounding people notice an unpleasant odor from the mouth - the cause in the accumulation of pus in the lungs. There is also an increase in body temperature, weakness, poor appetite;
• Pathology of the cardiovascular system. If blood circulation is disturbed in case of malfunctions in the heart, blood can stagnate in the lungs - such a phenomenon in medicine is called pulmonary hypertension. Characteristic symptoms - shortness of breath, tachycardia, taste of iron in the mouth;
• Embolism of the pulmonary artery. This pathology can develop after surgery or as a side effect of thrombophlebitis and varicose veins. Symptoms are similar to manifestations of other lung diseases - shortness of breath and severe pain behind the sternum;
• Cystic fibrosis - this disease is transmitted by heredity at the gene level, manifested as frequent colds, accompanied by a strong cough, after which the mouth remains the taste of iron, and in sputum can detect pus and impurity of blood;
• Diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. In this case, the taste of iron in the mouth is explained by persistent and profuse bleeding, which can occur on their own, without coughing. The discharged blood is dark red, and the patient complains of pain in the hypochondrium or peritoneum.

Occasionally, the admixture of blood in saliva or sputum and metallic taste in the mouth appear after a medical examination conducted to diagnose certain diseases - for example, if the probe is swallowed.

Often this phenomenon occurs after the removal of adenoids or tonsils. In such cases, unpleasant sensations usually pass by themselves in a few days, no specific treatment is required.

How to treat a cough with blood

Since symptoms such as blood in sputum and the taste of iron in the mouth often speak of the development of serious diseases, treatment should always be prescribed only by a doctor. Once the underlying disease is eliminated, unpleasant symptoms will also disappear.

But if they are caused by minor traumas of the larynx or by rupture of capillaries with severe attacks of cough, you can help yourself with the help of folk remedies.

1. Aloe. It is necessary to choose the bottom, fleshy leaf of a medicinal plant and to crush it in a gruel. Add a tablespoon of honey, stir. Take this drug should be a teaspoon in the morning and evening after eating, but do not swallow immediately, and hold it in your mouth for a while, so that the juice gets on the mucous membrane of the throat. After a few days, the blood in the phlegm and the metallic taste in the mouth should disappear.
2. Goat's milk with Borjomi. First you need to prepare Borjomi - water is poured into a glass, after which from it a teaspoon of carbon dioxide is removed. Then the milk is heated, after which two pieces of milk and one part of the Borjomi are poured into the cup. You can add a little honey to enhance the effect. Take this drink after meals three times a day.
3. Ginger root. One middle root is cleaned and crushed, after which it is placed in a thermos flask and 500 ml of boiling water is poured. To insist the drink should be 3-4 hours, then add lemon and honey and drink like tea throughout the day.
4. Inhalations with dry cough with essential oils. The hot steam will warm and soothe the irritated mucous membrane, make the mucus more fluid and will facilitate its retreatment by coughing. But if there is a temperature or problems with blood pressure, this procedure is contraindicated. Preparing the inhalation is very simple: you need to boil 3-4 liters of water and add 5-6 drops of tea tree oil, fir or eucalyptus. It takes at least a quarter of an hour to breathe medical steam.
5. Mustards. This is a proven and affordable method of getting rid of a debilitating cough, but it is not suitable if its causes are tuberculosis, lung cancer or lung abscess. You can not put mustard plasters on the heart area, birthmarks and bony projections.

Even if you managed to eliminate the taste of blood in your mouth with the help of the above recipes, you still need to visit the phthisiatrician and take a lung X-ray in the near future. Prevention will be refusal from smoking, walking in the fresh air, physical therapy and therapeutic gymnastics.
