Got a cough that just won't quit? You're not alone

- The strength of viruses and immune systems that may be out of practice are contributing to lingering symptoms this cold and flu season, some doctors say.
CORRECTION (Jan. 23, 2024): A previous version of this video referred to the term immunity debt instead of immunity deficit. The term immunity debt is relatively new, cropping up during the COVID-19 pandemic, and its definition and implications are still under discussion.

I'm suffering with two back-to-back lower respiratory tract infections. Covid at Christmas, now I'm sick with something else. Fever, cough, chills...I'm sick of it.
Get used to it boosted lol all the vaxxed people I know have it….none of us unvaxxed have this lolol hmmmm I wonder
@@ConradTurgeon-fb4cp I would have said you're crazy, but what you say is true. I'm the only vaxxed person in my family. I had covid 3 times. Nobody else in my unvaxxed family has ever had it.
Get a homepathic remedy (drops) for inflamation. This saved my life with Covid. Anytime I get a cough now I take them. Take a good herbal tea as well.
I had 3 vaccines and covid twice and so many infections since @@Sc00terNut
The “dry cough” 😩🥹 that won’t go away.
Try quitting dairy, it likely is seasonal asthma.
@@LuvableAFmine definitely isn't this I've had this for maybe a year now sometimes barky sometimes not but voice sounds fine wheezing when breathing out I'm dying 😅
An intense post-covid cough has lasted 2 and a half years and counting, even *with* respiratory physiotherapy it hasn’t gone away.
At this point one must ask whether more people (including doctors) need to understand this kind of damage can be a permanent risk of covid infection.
Get a homepathic remedy for inflamation. Comes in drops. Ask a homeopath with one to use. It works for me everytime.
I had this actually, for years. Chronic bronchtis, every 6 weeks I'd get very ill. I'd be fine at home.
A few of us filed a complaint with OSHA for sick building syndrome.
We found the building was infested with bats and an endless supply of guano...
180 days after the complaint, all 3 of us who filed the complaint, got "laid off".
you definitely have a case for a lawsuit
Lies again? Bang Bros Bukit Batok
It’s better to get flu once in every year to service our immune system 😂😂😂
Immunity debt is not what is going on. Talk to the doctors who know that the damage caused by covid impacts the effectiveness of the immune system,. So rather than an understimulated immune system, what we are experiencing is an immune system that has been weakened due to infection. We don't know if it will be permanent, but it's certainly long-lasting. I'm hearing many experts comparing it to HIV.
I have a lingering cough too. And it's after all that smoke I've had to inhale after forest fire season in Alberta. I had Covid too, and it took months to get over that too.
Immunity debt? What people that actually got COVID? Is their immune system out of practice? Many of my friends that would get sick before the pandemic would get stuck with a lingering cough for months. Also people tend to get sick more during the winter because they spend more time indoors. There were other viruses that still existed during the pandemic as well. I dont think the flu took a break during those early years of the pandemic. Sounds like a strange explanation
Even pre-2020, I had that lingering cough that took a year or more to clear. The family doctor told me it could be stress-related. Of course I was confused, I was fine otherwise, but I still tried to tone down the stress in my life and I guess it helped. At least in my case.
I'm glad you're feeling better now
A family member has had this type of cough for many months now. Inhalers seem to help a bit in this case
The air gets quite dry indoors in the winter time, this can increase irritation and coughing as well
I hope this lady finds a treatment to calm her symptoms!
As a former elementary school teacher who has dealt with an immense amount of germs, I would recommend that this lady cough « in her elbow » and not in her fist to avoid spreading germs via her hands, just some friendly advice 🙂
Take care!
This is a great report - thank you!
This video makes my modified mRNA tingle
Gabapentin for Chronic Refractory Cough.
Usually, I add some hot peppers in my food. It works very well for me🌶 😋
I eat lots of hot peppers, i tripled my intake through COVID, between that and 2 COVID shots, it saved my life lol, I'm sure if i had not done any shot or not eat hot peppers i would have died
I have it! I have fits of it too where I throw up :(
I did that all my life, at 24 quit dairy, and never came back. It’s allergies/asthma
You should really see a doctor about that
"If you have a cough, there's all kinds of herbal remedies...." So you're saying, going to the doctor is a pointless endeavor... Got it.
Pomegranate whole you put in oven and you eat everything inside when it fully cooks. Eat before sleeping. Asthma and dry cough goes away.
I been having this cough since September idk why , interesting im not the only one
Last Nov I had a post viral cough for 3 months, it was so bad that eventually I pulled a muscle in my ribs. Eventually it decreased on it's own until it disappeared. Not fun.
I had a cough for about a month back in Oct/Nov. Normally I would only be sick for a couple of days but that virus was bad. Nothing really worked but to wait it out.
Vaccine effects 🤫
My son has had this for over 2 years since covid. Hopefully a solution is found...
Take lime and salt 🧂 for your cough it work s but , most of all trust God our father in heaven through Christ Jesus and holy spirit 🙏 we are living in the later days and they will be more trials , nation again nation alot of war, earthquake, global economic crisis, fire 🔥 food crisis, and alot more, I pray you all accept christ Jesus into your life. Have a blessed day 🙏
My husband has had this cough since he got covid in 2019, it won't go away.
So ... I can blame something other than my smoking a pack a day...LOL
There's nothing that unusual about a cough or upper respiratory infection that lingers for weeks -- even 8 to 10 weeks. Once an infection makes it down to the bronchial tubes, it can stay there for a long period of time. Dry environments, the presence of multiple viral and bacterial infections, poor sleep all contribute to this, which I and many others have experienced many times over the past decades of winters. Immunological deficit sounds like an interesting theory, but is there any real evidence for it? We were more isolated in 2020, but later came omicron which supposedly infected the majority of the population. And then some got long covid. People returned to school and travel, well before the flu and cold season started.
Masks can cause a chronic cough. I cant wear on for five minutes.
And in my own personal opinion,And when a person coughs that kept going on for weeks,And it means that person is suffering from viral respiratory or lung infection and he or she should take life --- saving anti --- biotics and should be under Doctor's care at all times.And also,People who always experiencing lingering coughs are very,very and very vulnerable to suffer from respiratory diseases like tubercolosis also known as T.B. that often contagious including pneumonia and asthma as well as sinus/sinuses that always caused terrible headaches.
And people who constantly coughs for a long time should also quit smoking because smoking does a lot of damage to people's respiratory systems particularly those who " are changed smokers. "
As mentioned in the video -- anti-biotics have no effect on viral infections.
I guess that's why they call it winter.
I got tinnitus after i got covid and it is sooooo annoying
So did I…
Nicotine gum 2/day for 2 weeks will make tinnitus go away, but you won’t hear any Dr tell you that.
I have been coughing since Christmas. It is a tickle in my throat that triggers the coughing. Then the running nose and sneezing starts. I buy cough candies and always carry them with me. I wake up, quite often in the middle of the night and take another cough candy. It goes away sometimes for 5-6 hours at a time.
Did it get better?
She said cough drops wont help. I had flu and cold symptoms at the start of winter. It ran it course after about 14 days and cold medicines. After watching this I wanna make some homemade soup.
See an osteopath to help relax the trachea and cervical fascias. It helps.
Sinus
Post-nasal drip.
Take a 2nd generation antihistamine (not Benadryl or any form of diphehydramine.
It may help.
It helps me.
I would be curious whether antihistamines would play a role here?
This is what you get if you go on the Expoline Train in Vancouver
The bout of coughing after the dreadful throat tickle.. 🤦👎 I had a consistent cough for weeks, maybe months. It'd come and go. I just told everyone after a while that it was permanent 🤷
2:05 you're probably thinking what I am.
So lockdowns and social distancing wasn't as great as we all thought? Got it!!
🥴🤦🏼♀️
Bro what??? It's because lockdowns and social distancing were effective that this is caused. If you need it explained in simple terms, it's like how if you drink a lot you build up a tolerance to getting drunk, but if you stop drinking for a while and them drink again, you are more likely to get drunk quicker.
@@stringedmermaid
My point was not a good idea what we did to now have put ourselves in weakened state. Nobody thinking about the longterm and all the other ramifications and side effects for how we handled things
@@stringedmermaid
Fauci literally admitted that social distancing came out of nowhere and had no scientific or medical merit.
@@mck59er People have some immunity to things like common cold and certain strains of influenza, because they come and go each year. Covid-19 was different. Nobody had immunity to Covid-19 because it was a novel virus. We did not know the damage it could do, and measures were taken out of precaution. Now that we are no longer immunologically naïve to covid-19 due to previous infection and vaccination, it can be better managed and its morbidity and mortality better predicted. Its not correct to say that covid-19 precautions were a mistake and as a result we are worse off today.The "immunological deficit" theory has not been proven -- it is just a possible explanation.
just take a high dose of CBD 25mg minimum a day, the anti inflammatory properties of CBD will help with the cough.
Yes!!!!!
Random dry cough and nothing else.
Omg, the second Dr sounds like the Goliath from SC Broodwar @1:55!!! :O!!!! He sounds like a bad@ss
Coughing into your inside of your elbow or a tissue is the way to cough so you don’t potentially spread germs😊
So quit smoking
My mom has had this now two winters in a row. 3-4 days of regular cold followed by 3-4 weeks coughing. I haven't had a cold in 20+ yrs and I isolated ALOT 2019-2022 and I'm not exceptionally clean nor a healthy eater, so where's my colds been? Now I'm worried I'm going to be totally smashed over this "immunity out of practice" thing.
Immunity debt is a BS theory...
The CBC is being irresponsible. Covid helps destroy the immune system which is why people are getting sicker. Going out and getting sick is not solving anything
I'm Diabetic, the only one in my family (different dad genes probably) and no one in my family got it or noticed and after COVID i coughed for 3 months very hard, if i bent over to say put the dog leash on i lost energy and would turn red in the face and felt like i had no oxygen left. if the dog (mid size Shepard mix) pulled i ran out of energy in my arms to hold the leash and I'm 6'5". i no longer had any issues after the 3 months, but COVID was 2 weeks of pain and bed ridden, i still attended virtual work meetings but went straight back to bed, fast forward to now and i have constant sinus congestion, don't know if its related but annoying, I would hate that to be a constant cough
Get your doctor to prescribe a steroid nasal spray it really helps 5 weeks ago the whole household got sick we all still have lingering symptoms.
t
its in the air i seen it an its everywhere
The jib?
Immunity out of practice LOL.
Getting rid of mucus buy a humidifier and a fan
Covid!
We are in the middle of winter arnt we this aint nothink new for god sake
Stop coughing into your hand!!
Ditto
It's 2024 and doctors and scientists don't have a treatment for a cough?
There are some remedies and medicines that work to mitigate it, but viruses operate very differently than bacteria, specifically in a way that makes finding medicine to eliminate it nearly impossible.
You can't stop coughing from occurring. It's a natural bodily process that has been around for many species for millions of years.
@@pc4mlc451 you're right but if it's happening for months then something else is up, because something nasty keeps reoccurring
It’s your body’s way of telling you something is wrong. If the cough doesn’t stop, it means there’s something in your body it can’t get out. Possible toxin that is foreign and unrecognizable to your body.
I do a acupuncture and I treat this a lot. It’s usually quite helpful.
Stop smoking
Just get another booster I'm sure it has nothing to do with these oddities of illness
Thank Covid vaccine!!!
I cough like that too however cannabis isn't contagious 😁
time to get the 16th jab....
That used to happen to me when I was in Canada. Doctors did not help nor cough medicine. I figured out after more than a decade of coughing when I was in Canada. After 30 years away from Canada and finally back, I am suprised that they did not solve this. They did not solve this in Hong Kong either. I guess it is not in the medical research. Someone has to give me a lot of money to share this.
From what I see from my evil relatives in health care, I am not going tell from my research.
Medicines is the public channel that everyone is shared. What about the private unknown ones?
That doctors lower teeth 😮
dry cough syrup is remedy. But to remove it from root, do exercise in garage, cold shower first then warm shower and stay hydrate throughout the day.
That would give me pneumonia. Not good advice.
Everyone suffering from this raise your hand. Now how many of you had multiple jabs? Thought so...
Yes let's completely ignore everything explained in the video to support a baseless argument that shows no correlation to what was discussed in the video
I had this for months after covid, and before any shot
Whaaaaaaat nooooooooo
4 weeks and counting. 😢
The reddit plug is typical and hilarious
Yep! Sux! 😷🤧🤐
💀
Lol this was always around, it’s called hay fever, or seasonal asthma. Since covid, people forgot the toms of people coughing three times a year for weeks, including myself.
DO NOT PANIC.
This is common and treatable.
Don't let the MSM pull you into fear.
Buy a dehumidifer you can get a cheap one at any major retailor and maybe value village if your trying to save money
It's not just that
A humidifier is actually really helpful. A dehumidifier wouldn’t be in this case.
So no real answer.
Must be the chemtrails!!
He literally explained its because our immune systems are out of practice in fighting respiratory viruses, which has caused immunity debt in a lot of people.
GERD also causes coughs like this. Study Dr Eric Berg.
Mines been going on since 2017. I wonder what damaged me :(
Mold or bats at work?
get your larynx checked .. sometimes small growth develops in larynx and irritates the throat
