My Daughter Coughs Steadily Since 8pm Till Now by NeshietUkochio(m): 5:32am On Jun 11, 2023 |
Hi Nairalanders, in a week my wife, my two-year-old daughter and I have been sick and all my hustle for the week spent on drugs. Last week Sunday my wife returned from church shaking with high fever, dizziness and headache. I bought her drugs which took up to Thursday to regain her strength, while my daughter became sick on Tuesday, adding huge burden on her mom who was still sick by then. I bought her drugs for the fever and cattarrh but she lost apetite for food. Just yesterday she woke up coughing till night, but not constantly by the day. She began coughing steadily from 8pm till this time that am posting this thread. The cough medicine I bought for her is not working. Meanwhile I got fever and shaking since 4pm yesterday till now. My worry is my daughter right now. We've not been able to sleep (she's giving us and our neighbours tarry night). It's now only cough. Any quick home remedy to try? Nlfpmod, seun, lalasticlala, MANNERBBQGRILLS, Dominique, please push this thread to front page for more ideas |

She no hot again, no cattarrh just cough |

If symptoms persist after three days please visit your doctor. But if she’s an infant take her straight to the hospital |

There is more to this sickness than just cough and cold. Treating the cough by quick home remedy is just a treatment for the symptom, not the real sickness. If you cant afford a hospital for now, kindly locate a primary health centre (PHC) nearest to your house and take your family there, atleast your little daughter. PHC is always cheap and almost free. |

EX6100:Thanks for sharing. Is it available in pharmacy? |
Re: My Daughter Coughs Steadily Since 8pm Till Now by NeshietUkochio(m): 7:33am On Jun 11, 2023 |
kernniejay:It's more expensive here than the government hospital built by our former governor, HE Godswill Akpabio. I do prefer going to the hospital for test and treatment. Thanks for the advice |

Magnetic010:I will take her straight to the hospital. I just need a quick home remedy so that I'll be able to go to hustle as usual then have money to take her straight to the hospital for test and treatment |

NeshietUkochio: Cough medicine you just started her on last night, you expect it to have worked it's miracle this morning. I'm afraid if she's below 10yrs you might want to take her to the hospital to get proper care. It could be that she is reacting to something in the house |
Re: My Daughter Coughs Steadily Since 8pm Till Now by Thegamingorca(m): 7:47am On Jun 11, 2023 |
NeshietUkochio: If it's only cough and she is above 5yrs, get her honey or custard. |

NeshietUkochio: Get her jam or honey and some water, not too much so she doesn't vomit. If the cough is productive of sputum which I doubt, (given the short history) then we will need to worry. I'm suspecting the cough is dry, right? Then there are two things involved, it's either she's having an allergy or she's having what we call am atypical upper respiratory tract infection. She will need an initial intramuscular injection of hydrocortisone |

Thegamingorca:I guess it's a dry cough. She has no apetite for food. Can I see the dicture of jam? |
Re: My Daughter Coughs Steadily Since 8pm Till Now by Rastafryrice: 9:46am On Jun 11, 2023 |
NeshietUkochio: She will be fine by God's grace |
Re: My Daughter Coughs Steadily Since 8pm Till Now by Rastafryrice: 9:47am On Jun 11, 2023 |
NeshietUkochio: Sir, have you tried st Luke hospital? at nwaniba |
Re: My Daughter Coughs Steadily Since 8pm Till Now by HeartlessMan: 9:53am On Jun 11, 2023 |
Ginger, garlic and onions. Blend all together then garnish with honey so you don't throw it up. Thank me with your wife's kpekus after 2 weeks.

You see, we Africans are the cause of our problems, we are blessed with so many roots & herbs, yet we abandoned them running after the white men's drugs. As a matter of urgency, go and get plenty "Scent Leaves" (Efinrin), wash it properly and boil very well, allow it to become cold, then pour it inside a keg. You and your family should start drinking it everyday, prepare another one if that one finishes. You will definitely thank me later |
Re: My Daughter Coughs Steadily Since 8pm Till Now by Thegamingorca(m): 11:47am On Jun 11, 2023 |
NeshietUkochio: Strawberry jam nah... Honey will suffice, it's just to make the throat soothen abit. Why haven't you taken her to hospital already? |
