Patient's question:
I had a cold a few days ago and have been experiencing a sore throat ever since. I ate a little bit of peanuts yesterday, but I don't know if it caused any interference. Hello, can you cough while eating peanuts?Doctor's answer:
Peanuts will never relieve a cough. Cough should be actively treated. I suggest you go to the hospital for a thorough examination. If it is caused by a viral infection, you can take many antiviral medications orally. If it is caused by a bacterial infection, you can take many anti-inflammatory drugs to clear your lungs. When going out, wear a mask and go to less crowded places to prevent cross-infection. In terms of diet, eat a lighter diet and consume more vegetables, water, and other foods.
