hello my daghter today said when she got home she said that today at school she kep haveing coughing fits and couldnt stop them she said she tried cough drops and she said that they didnt work. What causes coughing fits and what can we do to provent them or stop them
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Sudden onset coughing fits are mostly due to acute allergic bronchitis. Allergen (dust or pollen or chemicals) exposure in susceptible individuals cause bronchoconstriction and coughing. So in my opinion, you should get done allergy testing in your daughter. This will find out possible allergens in her. Try to avoid these allergens to prevent coughing fits. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your daughter. Thanks.
