sukhi khansi ke liye dawai

Shreya

मैं इस भयानक खांसी से परेशान हूँ जो जाने का नाम ही नहीं ले रही। ये कुछ हफ्ते पहले एक आम सर्दी की तरह शुरू हुई थी, जैसे नाक बंद, गला खराब, वही पुराने लक्षण, लेकिन फिर ये बदल गई। अब मुझे ये सूखी, परेशान करने वाली खांसी हो गई है जो रात में सोने नहीं देती! मेरे दोस्तों ने कहा कि मुझे सूखी खांसी के लिए दवाई देखनी चाहिए, लेकिन मुझे नहीं पता कि असल में क्या असरदार है। मैं डॉक्टर के पास गया, उन्होंने मुझे कुछ सिरप दिया जो थोड़ी मदद करता है, लेकिन पूरी तरह नहीं। और मैंने शहद और अदरक की चाय भी आजमाई, जो पुराने नुस्खे लगते हैं, लेकिन सच कहूँ तो, इस समय मैं कुछ भी आजमाने को तैयार हूँ। क्या कोई खास सूखी खांसी के लिए दवाई है जो आप लोग सुझाते हैं? मैंने ऑनलाइन कुछ पढ़ा, लेकिन सब बहुत उलझा हुआ है। कुछ कहते हैं कि डेयरी से बचें, जबकि कुछ ने अपने लक्षणों को कम करने के लिए ह्यूमिडिफायर का इस्तेमाल किया। उफ्फ, सीधे जवाब मिलना इतना मुश्किल क्यों है? क्या आप में से किसी को इसका अनुभव है? मेरी खांसी मुझे पागल कर रही है, और मुझे लगता है कि मैं बड़बड़ा रहा हूँ क्योंकि मैं थका हुआ और निराश हूँ। मैं बस फिर से सामान्य महसूस करना चाहता हूँ! आपके लिए क्या काम किया?

Dr. Neeraj Agarwal
I’m an MBBS graduate with a deep commitment to providing meaningful, patient-first care. My clinical training has given me a solid understanding of how to assess and manage a wide variety of health conditions—both common and complex. But beyond just clinical skills, I’ve always believed that the heart of medicine lies in listening. That’s what I try to bring into every consultation: not just treatment, but genuine attention to the person in front of me. I have gained experience across general medicine, paediatrics, emergency care and preventive health. I have treated patients of different age groups and backgrounds, which has helped shaped a more flexible, to diagnosis and management. Whether someone comes with a new symptom or a routine check-up, I aim to deliver evidence-based treatment, explained clearly and tailored to the lifestyle. I’m especially focused on making care accessible and comfortable. Too often, patients feel rushed or confused when they leave a doctor’s office—I try to do the opposite. Taking time to explain options, risks, or even just what’s going on in simple terms is something I take seriously. Communication, I think, is just as important as any prescription. I actively stay updated with current medical guidelines and research, and I’ve been exploring areas of holistic care and preventive medicine too. The more we can do to catch problems early—or better yet, avoid them—the better the outcome for everyone. I’ve seen how small lifestyle changes, when supported properly, can make a big difference to long-term health. There’s still a lot to learn, of course. I think every good doctor keeps learning. But every patient I see teaches me something new, and I carry those lessons forward—with honesty, empathy, and the intent to keep improving.

I’m a periodontist and academician with a strong clinical and teaching background. Over the last 4 years and 8 months, I’ve been actively involved in dental education, guiding students at multiple levels including dental hygienist, BDS, and MDS programs. Currently, I serve as a Reader at MMCDSR in Ambala, Haryana—a role that allows me to merge my academic passion with hands-on experience. Clinically, I’ve been practicing dentistry for the past 12 years. From routine procedures like scaling and root planing to more advanced cases involving grafts, biopsies, and implant surgeries. Honestly, I still find joy in doing a simple RCT when it’s needed. It’s not just about the procedure but making sure the patient feels comfortable and safe. Academically, I have 26 research publications to my credit. I’m on the editorial boards of the Archives of Dental Research and Journal of Dental Research and Oral Health, and I’ve spent a lot of time reviewing manuscripts—from case reports to meta-analyses and even book reviews. I was honored to receive the “Best Editor” award by Innovative Publications, and Athena Publications recognized me as an “excellent reviewer,” which honestly came as a bit of a surprise! In 2025, I had the opportunity to present a guest lecture in Italy on traumatic oral lesions. Sharing my work and learning from peers globally has been incredibly fulfilling. Outside academics and clinics, I’ve also worked in the pharmaceutical sector as a Drug Safety Associate for about 3 years, focusing on pharmacovigilance. That role really sharpened my attention to detail and deepened my understanding of drug interactions and adverse effects. My goal is to keep learning, and give every patient and student my absolute best.

For a persistent dry cough, also known as “sukhi khansi,” it’s essential to first consider potential underlying causes. If your cough is lasting for more than a few weeks, it might be due to post-nasal drip, asthma, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), or even a lingering after-effect of a resolved viral infection. Sometimes, environmental factors like dry air or irritants can also play a role. Over-the-counter medications that contain dextromethorphan are often recommended for dry cough as they act on the brain to reduce the cough reflex. However, those are not advisable if you need to address suspicion of post-nasal drip – then try an antihistamine or a nasal steroid spray. Natural remedies like honey have shown some benefits due to their soothing properties, but their relief is more symptomatic than curative. Avoiding potential irritants such as smoke or strong odors could also help. Humidifiers can provide moisture that might ease dry cough, especially if your home environment is too dry. But if the cause is something like GERD, then reducing acidic and spicy foods, along with other lifestyle changes, might be a better approach. Usually, avoiding dairy is more applicable for productive coughs related to phlegm, rather than dry coughs. Should symptoms persist, worsen, or are accompanied by fever, weight loss, or difficulty breathing, it’s vital to seek medical evaluation. Sometimes, persistent cough warrens further investigation which your doctor may pursue, like chest X-rays or a throat swab to rule out underlying infection. While it can feel overwhelming, focusing on understanding the root cause will help in targeting the right treatment more effective.
