Dry cough with phlegm in the throat is not a new type of pneumonia

Novel pneumonia generally refers to the infection of the new coronavirus. Symptoms such as dry cough and phlegm in the throat may be caused by novel coronavirus infection, but they may also be related to diseases such as upper respiratory tract infections and acute bronchitis.

Upper respiratory tract infection: If the patient is invaded by pathogenic bacteria such as bacteria or viruses, it may cause an inflammatory reaction to the throat mucosa, and symptoms such as cough and sputum will occur clinically. At this time, you can take compound aminophenamine tablets, amoxicillin capsules and other drugs for treatment according to the doctor's instructions.

2. Acute bronchitis: due to the decline of the body's resistance, it is easy to be affected by external factors, thus inducing the disease, and the typical symptoms mainly include cough and sputum. At this time, drugs such as dextromethorphan hydrobromide granules and ambroxol hydrochloride oral solution can be used as prescribed by the doctor.

Second, it is a novel coronavirus infection

If you have recently been in contact with a person who has been diagnosed with the new coronavirus infection and have the above symptoms, it is considered to be related to the new coronavirus infection.
