Occasional dry cough and sore throat are not new types of pneumonia
Novel pneumonia generally refers to the infection of the new coronavirus. Occasional dry cough and sore throat may be caused by the novel coronavirus, but it can also be caused by other causes.
First, it is the case of the new coronavirus infection
The novel coronavirus is a new strain of coronavirus that has not been previously discovered in humans, and patients may experience symptoms such as fever, cough, and fatigue after infection, and some patients may also have nasal congestion and runny nose. If you have low immunity and frequent visits to densely populated areas, you are susceptible to infection by the new coronavirus, which can induce the above symptoms.
It is recommended that patients can wait for self-healing through home isolation, during which they should maintain a good attitude, avoid excessive tension, and also pay attention to a healthy diet and eat more nutrient-rich foods, such as eggs and milk.

1. Tonsillitis: Tonsillar inflammation is usually a disease caused by bacterial or viral infection when the body's resistance is reduced, and symptoms such as sore throat, difficulty swallowing and poor breathing will occur after the disease, and with the development of the disease, it may also cause occasional dry cough. Amoxicillin capsules, cefixime capsules can be taken as prescribed by the doctor, and surgical treatment can also be carried out by tonsillectomy.
2. Acute epiglottitis: Acute epiglottitis is usually caused by pathogenic microbial infection, which will cause congestion and swelling of the mucosa in the throat, so it will cause throat discomfort, and may even affect normal breathing, so it will cause occasional dry cough. Antibiotics can be used as prescribed by the doctor, such as penicillin V potassium tablets, roxithromycin dispersible tablets, etc., which can play an anti-inflammatory role.If necessary, you can also go to a regular hospital in time to improve by incision and drainage.
3. Allergic cough: Allergic cough is mainly caused by contact with allergens, which will lead to a high reaction of the respiratory mucosa in the early stage of the disease, and will also be accompanied by itching and irritating dry cough, so it will cause occasional dry cough. It can be treated with drugs such as loratadine capsules, levoxetirizine hydrochloride capsules under the guidance of a doctor, and it is also necessary to stay away from allergens.
In addition, it may also be related to colds, and patients are advised to seek medical examination and treatment in time.
