FAQ’s about Whooping Cough

Whooping cough is characterized by severe coughing spells that end with a high-pitched “whooping” sound as the person tries to inhale.

An adult can get whooping cough if their immunity has weakened over time. This can happen if they were not vaccinated, or if they have not had a booster shot as an adult.

Whooping cough can last for several weeks, often 6 to 10 weeks.

Some home remedies to help ease whooping cough symptoms include drinking plenty of fluids, eating small, frequent meals to avoid vomiting from coughing and resting as much as possible.

Steam may help soothe the airways and reduce coughing. Using a humidifier or taking steamy showers may provide relief.

To sleep better with whooping cough, elevate your head with extra pillows, try sleeping in a reclined position in a chair.

Turmeric has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties that might help soothe whooping cough symptoms.
