hi, my name is dr. troy giles. i'm a doctorof chiropractic and today i wanted to talk to you because we're heading into the falltime about coughs. so many people get coughs during the fall. it starts to be more humid.now people are inside. the air's blowing. the heater's are blowing. of course we'rein more confined areas without as much air flow. so people end up getting sick. they'reimmune systems drop down and then they get sick. you see that? it's not because you gota virus from somewhere. i get viruses every day. i'm with 25-30 patients. of those, inthe winter, maybe ten of them are sick right there in my face. so if it was because i raninto a virus that made me sick, then i would be always sick. all the doctors that you eversaw would be sick and everybody would always
be sick. it's not a matter that you ran intoa virus that you got sick, it's that your immune system dropped, meaning that you havestress or you've been eating too much cookies or candies or sugar and your immune systemdrops down. so i wanted to talk to you a little bit about coughs today. coughing, you know,when you get the congestion in your lungs, usually it is from a virus, but it's the immunesystem that's dropped down. i just worked with a patient earlier today where i orderedfor her a thing called a sputum cytology. this is more when you get a significant coughand it's maybe hanging around, those chronic coughs. i ordered a cytology, which meanswe looked to see what kind of cells there were in her cough, in what she had spit up.so she takes a sample to the lab and they
culture it, of which we found bacteria. sowe were able to treat her with a natural antibiotic and at the same time her medical doctor aswell is going to be giving her an antibiotic. so that will help to knock that off. if youhave a chronic cough, talk to your doctor and ask for a sputum cytology, sputum cytology.that just means that they're taking what your coughing and they're going to swab it or cultureit and determine what there is and which is the best antibiotic for it. many times wejust throw erythromycin or we throw, you know, she was on doxycyline i believe it was. thedoctor didn't know. he just handed that to her. but she's had this cough for three orfour years. so i said "let's get this cytology done." and now we know exactly what is thebest antibiotic for that. but with coughs
it can be anywhere from a virus, bacterias,it can even be fungus. it can even be that you are regurgitating up at nighttime andyou might be even aspirating some of your stomach fluids so that it causes there tobe irritation in the trachea and your lungs. so getting in there and drawing out the cough,i suggest many times the patient will go and get what's called and expectorant and coughsuppressant. so you want to be able to expectorate, which means get it to become fluid, so youcan cough it up and out, but at the same time suppress the cough. so that you're not coughingall the time, creating an irritation. but enough that it slows the cough down and thenyou're able to get it up and out. so that's good. that again, that's a cough expectorantand suppressant. so like robitussin or in
our area we have a tussin brand that's a goodone. but you want to try to dry out the cough and get it to move up and out. you want tobuild the immune system as much as you can, your vitamin c. you can also look, we haveone we call viro-ex, which is for virus, bacto-ex for bacteria. realizing as well, over hereagain, as i'm a chiropractor, we look and see what vertebrae are misaligned. here againc6 runs out to heart and lung. c7 runs heart and lung, t1 heart and lung. so the c6, 7,t1, if those areas are misaligned, they're not going to allow the energy to pass aroundthe way they should. so make sure you get an adjustment as well. so keep your windowsopen a little bit during the winter to freshen your house and get some new air in there occasionallyas well. so i hope that helps you and i hope
you have a wonderful fall season coming up.
