Description
Although cough is one of the most frequent complaints seen in clinical practice, its underlying causes range widely, from allergic and infectious triggers to dry, acute, or chronic presentations. Understanding that every cough is different encourages clinicians to move beyond one-size-fits-all remedies and instead tailor treatment to the specific aetiology. This approach enables faster, more effective relief, reduces inappropriate use of broad-spectrum medications, and supports evidence-based, patient-centred cough management.
