A cold with cough for 1 week, worsening on lying down with a vomiting sensation, is most consistent with:
• Post Nasal Drip (mucus trickling back when lying down)
• Associated throat irritation leading to cough reflex and gagging
Next Steps
• Symptomatic treatment:
– Anti-allergic like Levocetirizine (once daily at night)
– Cough syrup (preferably anti-allergic + soothing)
– Steam inhalation 2–3 times daily
• Nasal care:
– Saline nasal spray or rinse
• Sleeping advice:
– Use 2 pillows (head elevation)
Health Tips
• Avoid cold drinks, dust exposure
• Warm fluids (soups, honey water)
• Do not lie flat immediately after meals
• Gargle with warm salt water
