Indications of Schwabe Tussikind

Cough from bronchial catarrh, acute and chronic wheeze, irritable cough, and initial symptoms of whooping cough.

Lungs are directly exposed to the environment through inhaled air. The air passage and respiratory bronchioles are lined by membranes, which enable the inhaled air to become warm and moist. Under normal conditions, the infective organisms or allergens get moved up by the sweeping action of cilia to remove the particulate matter before it reaches the lungs. The local defense consists of secretory lgA, microphages, etc.
A diseased state occurs when the defense mechanisms are deficient.

The cough reflex is stimulated by irritation and removes foreign matter with secretions. In the early stages, the cough is dry and unproductive. With the development of inflammatory exudate, it becomes productive. In whooping cough the exudate is tenacious and the child gives a series of quick, repeated coughs. It needs specific medical treatment. Common cold, flu if not taken care of develops complications of acute bronchitis. Cold, damp, and foggy climates help the development of the disease. Wheezing, difficulty in breathing, mucoid sputum associated with fever and general malaise are common symptoms of the suffering children. If it is repeated season after season, it may be termed chronic bronchitis. However, allergic asthma is different and many children suffer because of this. Wheezing is present but there may not be fever. Whooping
cough has a definite etiology, the bacteria called Bordetella pertussis. The latter may require special treatment.
