Patient's question:
I have congenital heart disease. Recently, I have been coughing frequently and want to know if there is a relationship between the cough and heart disease?Doctor's answer:
Coughing and the heart are very related. Left ventricular weakness and urethral mucosal congestion can lead to pulmonary edema and blood clot exudation. This is what is commonly known as pink frothy sputum. Additionally, there are several causes of cough, such as respiratory infections, allergic asthma, and other respiratory diseases. If the cough symptoms are severe, it is important to go to the hospital for timely improvement and thorough examination to identify the cause before treatment. It is still important to pay attention to regular exercise to enhance immunity.
