Coughing is a rather unpleasant symptom. Especially if a cough has started in your child. Not many parents know what to do in such a situation, but it is necessary to know. Since the probability of complications is 99% depends on the behavior of the parents. Domsovetov tells how to cure a child and how to recognize its types.
Coughing is not a disease, but rather an unpleasant but very informative symptom of a certain illness. Nature has created a cough reflex to protect the respiratory system. In fact, a cough occurs when the lungs produce excess amounts of mucus. By coughing, the bronchi themselves are cleansed.
Regarding the pathogen cough can be of two types.
The cause of cough may be infectious diseases and allergens. Cough with viral infectious diseases occurs along with other symptoms - fever, deterioration in the general condition of the child, runny nose, etc. The sputum with this cough goes away colorless, transparent. 90% of all cases of children's cough comes just to the share of ARVI. Bacterial infections are also capable of causing coughing. They can be the root cause, and also arise as a result of improper "treatment" of a viral cough. Stagnation of mucus in the lungs promotes the accumulation of various bacteria in them, while the mucus does not flow profusely, has a purulent, yellowish-green hue.
Allergic cough is somewhat different from a cough caused by an infection. It, as a rule, arises in itself, is not accompanied by a rise in body temperature or deterioration in the general condition of the child. If the baby started coughing, but he does not have a cold - this is a signal to parents about the onset of an allergic cough.
By the nature of cough they distinguish:
Dry cough - usually accompanies the onset of a viral or bacterial infection. The sputum does not depart, therefore still this cough name unproductive. The task of parents is to translate dry cough into wet.
Wet cough or productive - characterized by abundant or not too plentiful sputum. The "perfect" cough.
Barking cough is a symptom of a dangerous disease - laryngitis. This cough is easy to distinguish. It is accompanied by hoarseness of the voice - the child says the beginning of the sentence and will turn sour near the end. The voice of the little children falls during crying. Since with laryngitis swelling of the vocal cords, a cough is accompanied by a ringing and resembles a dog barking, hence the name. At the first sign of this cough, or even the slightest suspicion, you need to see a doctor urgently. Especially dangerous is laryngitis for children under three years old.
Pertussis cough is a symptom of whooping cough. At the very beginning of the disease it is difficult to distinguish whooping cough from the usual. Only after a few days you can see that the cough becomes paroxysmal, the child can not breathe, often the attacks end with vomiting. Especially dangerous is a cough for babies and children under the age of one year. Urgently address to the doctor!
Spasmodic cough - cough, provoked by spasm. It often happens in patients with bronchial asthma. Cough is dry and wheezing, there is no sputum. The patient painfully long and painfully clears his throat. Children have such a cough rarely, requires supervision of a doctor.

How to distinguish dry cough from wet? The pharmacy is always asked for a cough to give syrup. A HZ, how to define it
Answers:
Sweet Poison
If you cough and your throat is dry, your sputum does not go away, there is no feeling that there is some kind of mucus in your throat, but it seems that sand or some kind of powder has got into the throat, it's a dry cough. He usually at the beginning of an infectious disease happens. Attacks long - you start to cough, the throat is irritated: the longer you try to clear your throat, the worse.
If there is sputum that periodically accumulates, and you expectorate it, then it's a wet cough. It is usually closer to the end of the disease. It is easier to earn, if you freeze (in the cold water plunge, sweat in the transport and walk in an unbuttoned jacket along the street).
