Patients Concern
Disease/Condition Glossary
Cough: Coughing is a reflex that protects the airways and lungs against mucus and irritants such as smoke or dust. It helps the body heal and protect itself. Cough could be dry or wet/chesty: A dry cough is tickly and does not produce mucus/phlegm, whereas with a wet/chesty cough, mucus or phlegm is produced to help clear the airways. Causes include respiratory tract infection, hay fever, inhalation of irritants, smoking, lung problems, or digestive disorders.
Common cold: The common cold is an infection of the upper respiratory tract (nose and throat) caused by the virus. It is usually harmless, and the symptoms generally resolve within two weeks. Cold can spread from one person to another through personal contact and air. Symptoms include congestion, runny nose, sneezing, sore throat, cough, and headache.
