HELLO,
Your cough is not an infection anymore. Since it has been present on and off for more than 2 years Ayurveda considers this a chronic imbalance not an acute disease. In Ayurveda, cough is called KASA Your condition fits Jirna kasa (chronic cough)
Why the cough keeps coming back? According to Ayurveda, coughing happens when: -Digestive fire (Agni) becomes weak -Undigested toxins (Ama) form -These toxins travel upward and irritate the throat and chest -Sticky Kapha causes mucus or heaviness -Dry Vata causes irritation and repeated urge to cough
Because this has continued for years -The throat lining has become sensitive -Airways are easily irritated -Even small changes (weather, food, talking) restart the cough
Why you also have sore throat -Chronic coughing damages the throat tissues -Dryness + inflammation causes burning, pain, scratchy feeling -Healing is slow unless the root cause is treated
Why earlier herbal medicines worked Your earlier Vaidya likely -Strengthened digestion -Removed Kapha toxins -Healed the throat lining Now the same imbalance has slowly returned.
Treatment Goals • Strengthen digestion so toxins stop forming • Remove sticky Kapha from chest and throat • Calm irritated Vata to stop repeated coughing • Heal throat tissues permanently • Prevent recurrence
Internal Medicines
1. Sitopaladi Churna= ½ teaspoon + honey Twice daily after food =Soothes throat irritation, Reduces cough frequency, Balances Kapha and Pitta, Heals throat lining
2. Talisadi churna= ½ teaspoon + honey Once at night =Removes deep-seated Kapha, Prevents night coughing, Improves lung function
• Vasarishta= 20 ml with equal warm water after meals =One of the best medicines for chronic cough, Clears airways, Reduces inflammation, Prevents recurrence
4. Kantakari Avaleha=1 teaspoon at bedtime =Strengthens lungs, Reduces sensitivity of airways, Prevents repeated relapse
5. Yashtimadhu Churna= ¼ teaspoon with honey Slowly lick, 2–3 times/day =Heals sore throat, Reduces dryness, Acts like a natural throat coating
Duration of Treatment -Minimum: 6–8 weeks -Best results: 2–3 months -Chronic conditions need complete tissue healing not short treatment
External Treatment
• Steam Inhalation -Plain steam or with Tulsi or Ajwain -5–7 minutes daily =Liquefies Kapha, Opens airways, Reduces throat irritation
1. Oil Application -Warm sesame oil -Apply on chest & throat -Once daily or before bath =Reduces Vata dryness, Strengthens respiratory muscles
Diet -Warm, freshly cooked food -Rice gruel, soft rice -Moong dal -Ginger, cumin, pepper -Warm water throughout the day
Avoid -Cold water -Ice cream -Cold drinks -Curd at night -Fried food -Bakery items -Excess sweets These increase Kapha and weaken digestion.

Your cough can be cured but -It needs patience -Regular treatment -Diet discipline -Avoid stopping medicines early Ayurveda treats the root cause,not just symptoms. That is why results are long-lasting when done properly

आपके संपर्क में आने और अपनी समस्या साझा करने के लिए धन्यवाद। कई सालों से चल रही इस तरह की पुरानी खांसी बहुत आम है और यह तथ्य कि पहले यह आयुर्वेदिक दवाओं से पूरी तरह ठीक हो गई थी, एक बहुत सकारात्मक संकेत है। यह स्पष्ट रूप से दिखाता है कि आपका शरीर हर्बल उपचार के लिए अच्छी प्रतिक्रिया देता है और यह एक कार्यात्मक श्वसन असंतुलन है, कोई स्थायी बीमारी नहीं।
आयुर्वेद में, लंबे समय से चल रही खांसी जिसमें गला खराब हो और कोई स्पष्ट कारण न हो, उसे प्राणवाहा स्रोतस में वात-कफ दोष के रूप में देखा जाता है। समय के साथ, सूखापन गले और वायुमार्ग को परेशान करता है जबकि चिपचिपा कफ बार-बार खांसी का कारण बनता है। पाचन अग्नि आमतौर पर हल्की कमजोर होती है, जिससे बार-बार जलन होती है, भले ही तेज अम्लता न हो। यही कारण है कि खांसी आती-जाती रहती है।
आयुर्वेदिक दवाएं गले को शांत करके, कफ को कम करके, श्वसन मार्ग को मजबूत करके और पुनरावृत्ति को रोककर काम करती हैं।
आयुर्वेदिक दवाएं सुझाई गई हैं: - यष्टिमधु चूर्ण एक ग्राम दिन में दो बार शहद या गर्म पानी के साथ - सितोपलादि चूर्ण आधा चम्मच दिन में दो बार शहद के साथ, अगर खांसी सूखी हो तो कुछ बूंदें घी मिलाएं - तालिसादी चूर्ण आधा चम्मच दिन में दो बार भोजन के बाद गर्म पानी के साथ - वासावलेह एक चम्मच रात में धीरे-धीरे चाटें
रात में ठंडा पानी, दही, आइसक्रीम, बेकरी आइटम और बहुत सूखे खाद्य पदार्थों से बचें। पूरे दिन गर्म पानी पिएं। साधारण गर्म ताजा पका हुआ भोजन, सूप और हल्के मसाले पसंद करें।
गले को शांत करने और जलन को कम करने के लिए रोजाना एक बार सादे पानी से भाप लेना मददगार होता है। खांसी को जबरदस्ती दबाएं नहीं।
चूंकि खांसी दो साल से अधिक समय से है, इसलिए किसी गहरी समस्या को बाहर करने के लिए बुनियादी जांच कराना उचित है, जैसे कि छाती का एक्स-रे, पूर्ण रक्त गणना, ईएसआर और ईएनटी गले की जांच, अगर गले में खराश बनी रहती है।
इन दवाओं के नियमित उपयोग से चार से छह सप्ताह में खांसी में काफी कमी आनी चाहिए और यह पहले की तरह नियंत्रण में रहनी चाहिए। आयुर्वेद सबसे अच्छा तब काम करता है जब इसे लगातार और धीरे-धीरे लिया जाए और इस प्रकृति की अधिकांश पुरानी खांसी सही दृष्टिकोण के साथ पूरी तरह से प्रबंधनीय होती है।
1.Sitopladi churna 1 tsp thrice daily with honey 2.Vasavaleha 1 tsp twice daily with warm milk after meals 3.Kanakasava 20 ml with 20 ml water twice daily after meals
🥗 Diet & Lifestyle Tips - Diet: Warm, soft foods (soups, khichdi, lightly spiced dals). Avoid cold drinks, ice cream, fried/oily foods. - Hydration: Sip warm water or herbal teas (Tulsi, Ginger, Mulethi). - Local care: Gargle with warm water + pinch of turmeric + salt for sore throat. - Breathing practices: Gentle Anulom Vilom and Bhramari pranayama to strengthen lungs. - Environment: Avoid dust, smoke, and cold drafts. Keep air moist with a humidifier if needed.
Warm Regards DR. ANJALI SEHRAWAT
Hello Thanks for opening up about your struggle. Dealing with a cough that keeps coming back for years—it’s draining, and it really gets to you, especially when you know Ayurveda helped before.
YOUR CONCERN
You’ve got a chronic, on-and-off cough. It’s been going on for more than two years, sometimes with a sore throat. Nothing obvious seems to trigger it. Earlier, Ayurvedic treatment from a Vaidya sorted it out, but now you don’t have access and you’re looking for clear Ayurvedic advice again.
AYURVEDIC UNDERSTANDING
In Ayurveda, this kind of long-lasting cough lines up with Kāsa Roga. Based on what you’ve shared—a pattern that comes and goes, sore throat, and no clear triggers—it points to a Vata-Kapha type cough.
What’s going on? - Vata: Your throat feels dry and irritated. - Kapha: There’s a tendency for mucus, or just that sensitive feeling. - The respiratory channels (Pranavaha Srotas) might be a bit weak.
If you don’t get to the real cause, the cough just keeps coming back.
What We Want to Achieve - Calm and heal your throat and airways - Balance Vata and Kapha - Make your lungs stronger, not just stop the cough for now - Actually prevent it from coming back again
AYURVEDIC TREATMENT PLAN
A. Internal Medicines (Main Remedies) These are classic, safe choices that have stood the test of time.
1. Sitopaladi Churna - Take half a teaspoon with honey, twice a day after meals. - It soothes your throat, cuts down how often you cough, and helps heal your airways.
2. Talisadi Churna - Same dose as above, with honey, once or twice a day. - Great for stubborn, recurring coughs. Helps with sore throats and stops relapses.
3. Vasavaleha - One teaspoon, twice daily after food. - Acts like a natural bronchodilator, calms irritation, and is really helpful for long-lasting coughs.
4. Yashtimadhu (Licorice) Churna - A quarter teaspoon at night with warm milk or water. - It heals the throat lining, reduces dryness, and is especially good for chronic cases.
HOME REMEDIES
- Sip warm water through the day. - Do steam inhalation once a day (plain, or toss in a pinch of ajwain). - Skip cold water, cold drinks, and don’t let cold air hit you at night.
DIET PLAN
What to eat: - Warm, freshly made food - Rice, moong dal, easy veggies like bottle gourd or pumpkin - Turmeric milk at night—if your digestion handles it well
What to avoid: - Cold, refrigerated food or drinks - Curd at night - Too much sour, fried, or packaged food - Ice cream or cold juices
LIFESTYLE CHANGES
- Try not to stay up late—late nights stir up Vata and make stubborn coughs worse. - Shield your throat from dust, smoke, or sudden chills. - Gentle breathing exercises are fine, but skip any strong pranayama while you’re actively coughing.
How Soon Should You Feel Better? - Cough intensity should start dropping in about a week to 10 days. - Sore throat usually eases up in a week or two. - Full control over the cough? Give it 4–6 weeks. - Keeping it from coming back really depends on sticking to the plan and being steady with your diet.
Since Ayurveda helped you before, you’re likely to get good results again. Chronic cough doesn’t mean you’re stuck with it forever—it just means your system needs a real reset, not just a quick fix.
Wishing you steady healing
Warm Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate
Chronic cough that keeps coming on and off for years usually means the throat and chest have become weak and irritated from long standing vata kapha imbalance Over time dryness of vata and stickiness of kapha stay lodged in the throat and respiratory channels which causes repeated coughing and sore throat even without clear triggers Earlier herbal relief shows your body responds well once this imbalance is corrected and the tissues are nourished again
