Most patients do not know what caused the disease after they have dry cough with white sputum. So, what is the cause of dry cough with white sputum?

First, what is the reason for dry cough with white sputum? Coughs can be divided into exogenous coughs and endogenous coughs. Exogenous coughs can be divided into wind-cold coughs and wind-heat coughs. Different types of coughs require completely different medications and dietary therapy methods. Here is a simple way to distinguish them, which is to observe the tongue coating. If the tongue coating is white, it is a wind-cold cough, which means the cold is severe. The sputum from the cough is thinner, white and sticky, and there is nasal congestion and runny nose. At this time, you should eat some warm, expectorant and cough-relieving foods. If the tongue coating is yellow or red, it is a wind-heat cough, which means that the internal heat is relatively large. The phlegm is yellow, thick, and difficult to cough up, and there is a sore throat. At this time, you should eat some food that clears the lungs, resolves phlegm and relieves cough.

Second, coughs caused by internal injuries are mostly long-term and recurrent coughs. At this time, parents should pay attention to giving their children some foods that regulate the spleen and stomach, nourish the kidneys, and replenish the lung qi. The specific methods are as follows: Wind-cold cough ginger + brown sugar + garlic. If you have a wind-cold cold, drinking warm ginger and brown sugar water can play a good therapeutic role. If it is accompanied by a cough, add 2 to 3 cloves of garlic to the ginger and brown sugar water and cook them together. Use low heat to cook for 10 minutes to cook off the spicy taste of the garlic so that the child will be willing to drink it. To make steamed garlic water, take 2 to 3 cloves of garlic, smash them, put them in a bowl, add half a bowl of water, put in a piece of rock sugar, cover the bowl and put it in the pot to steam. After boiling over high heat, switch to low heat and steam for 15 minutes. When the garlic water in the bowl is warm, feed it to your child. The garlic does not need to be eaten. Generally 2 to 3 times a day, half a bowl each time. Garlic is warm in nature and enters the spleen, stomach and lung meridians. It is very effective in treating cold coughs and kidney deficiency coughs. It is also convenient and simple, and children are willing to drink it.
