Why am I coughing and losing my appetite for less than 2 weeks?

Patient's Query

Cough less than 2 weeks. Loss of appetite as well

Answered by Dr. Babita Goel

Two weeks of coughing and loss of appetite may be due to a variety of causes, such as respiratory illnesses, reflux of acid into the esophagus, or inflammatory problems. Calling a general practitioner or pulmonologist will be much better than self-medication.

Male | 24

Your friend must be going through a troubling physiological state. Sore throat, nasal congestion, fever, headache, nosebleed, cough, and even the blood and mucus signs can indicate a particular disease. Make it an obligation to see a healthcare specialist as soon as possible. These symptoms may be due to biological complications or some causatives such as infections and high blood pressure upon which the treatment sits. A doctor should examine what is wrong with him and provide the treatment.
