This symptoms show that longstanding throat and lung weakness where cough has stayed for many years and sometimes blood can come due to irritation First we need to clear the phlegm and strengthen the lungs You need to take Sithophaladi churna 1/2-0-1/2 tsp with honey Kanakasava -10-0-10 mL with equal water Get chest x ray pa view to rule out any cause
HELLO MUKUL,
Based on your symptoms - chronic cough (> 5 years) , throat discomfort, difficulty in speaking, occasional blood in sputum, with high blood pressure- it is very important to note that blood in sputum should never be ignored.
AYURVEDIC VIEW -The condition resembles a mix of Kasa (chronic cough) and Urdhwa shwasa/ Kantharoga (throat disorder) with underlying pitta-kapha vitiation
GENERAL AYURVEDIC MANAGEMENT
1) LIFESTYLE AND DIET -Avoid= cold drinks, curd at night, smoking, excess oily/spicy food -Take= warm water, light vegetarian diet, ginger- tulsi tea, pomegranate, mulethi decoction -Maintaain regular sleep and reduce stress
2) MEDICATIONS
-SHITOPALADI CHURNA + honey= 1 tsp for soothing cough twice daily
-YASHTIMADHU CHURNA + warm water= 1/2 tsp for thoat healing
-KANTAKARI AVALEHA= 1 tsp twice daily for long term immunity and respiratory health
-TALISADI CHURNA= 1 tsp with honey twice daily

hello mukul paul ,
You are having cough for more than 5 years, along with occasional blood in the morning and difficulty in expressing words. When cough is present for such a long time and blood appears in it, we need to take it seriously. The causes can be different it could be from your lungs (like long-standing infection, bronchitis, or even tuberculosis), from your throat, or sometimes related to blood pressure or blood vessel issues. The difficulty in expressing words also needs attention, as it could be connected to nerve weakness, past minor strokes, or weakness from high BP.
This is not something to ignore or manage at home only proper tests are very important to know the exact cause.
Investigations you should do
Chest X-ray – to check lungs. CT Chest (if needed) – for deeper clarity. Sputum test (for TB, infection, or blood traces). Complete blood count (CBC). Blood pressure monitoring. Neurological check-up + MRI Brain (since you have trouble in speaking).
Ayurvedic Medicines
(These are supportive until diagnosis is confirmed) 1.Sitopaladi Churna – 1 tsp with honey twice daily. 2.Vasarishta – 20 ml with equal water twice daily after food. 3.Brahmi Ghrita – 1 tsp at bedtime with warm milk (for speech and nerve support).
I know you are worried, but please don’t panic. The blood in cough and difficulty in speaking are warning signs, so it’s very important to combine Ayurvedic care with proper medical investigations. Once we know the root cause, treatment can be much more effective. You’ve tolerated this for 5 years, but now it’s the right time to get clear answers.
Warm regards, Dr. Karthika
Persistent cough and particularly, the presence of blood when coughing, is concerning and requires immediate medical evaluation. While Ayurveda offers management strategies for chronic cough, blood in the sputum suggests a need for urgent professional attention to rule out conditions like infections or other serious lung issues.
From an Ayurvedic standpoint, a chronic cough might be linked to an imbalance in the Vata and Kapha doshas, particularly when there’s discomfort and phlegm accumulation. However, your symptoms indicate a condition that should first be evaluated by a conventional healthcare professional to exclude critical health issues. Do not delay in seeking this assessment.
In parallel to professional care, Ayurveda may assist in soothing symptoms and promoting long-term respiratory health once serious concerns are ruled out. Minimizing consumption of cold and heavy foods like dairy and fried items can help reduce Kapha accumulation. Drinking warm water with a pinch of ginger powder may aid digestion and respiratory function by enhancing your digestive fire, or Agni.
To support respiratory health, practices such as steam inhalation with eucalyptus oil could be suggested to soothe irritation, unless contraindicated by a healthcare provider. It’s also helpful to evaluate your living environment for factors that might trigger symptoms, such as allergens or irritants.
Implement routine Pranayama (breathing exercises), specifically focusing on Anulom Vilom (alternate nostril breathing), which may help maintain respiratory balance. Aim for a routine of 10-15 minutes daily, but start with whatever feels manageable.
Remember, always consult a medical professional for blood in the sputum and work alongside them to integrate Ayurveda appropriately into your health strategy.
HELLO MUKUL,
You are 42 year old person with high blood pressure which has had -cough for more than 5 years -throat discomfort for more than 5 years -blood sometimes in sputum in the morning -difficulty in expressing words possibly voice change, throat tightness, or irritation
These are chronic symptoms, and because blood is present in sputum , it is important to investigate thoroughly
POSSIBLE CAUSES -Chronic respiratory infection- tb, fungal infection -bronchiectasis damaged airways that collect sputum -chronic bronchitis or asthma with infection -laryngeal or throat lesions- polyps, nodules, growths, rarely cancer -gastric reflux irritating throat
In Ayurveda, your symptoms can be understood as -Kasa (chronic cough)- long term aggravated vata and Kapha dosha affecting lungs and airways -Urdhwaga raktapitta- blood coming up through mouth with cough -Kanthagata roga= throat disorder leading to discomfort, difficulty in speech ,irritation
The chronic nature suggests kapha obstruction + vata dryness + rakta involvement
INVESTIGATIONS NEEDED Thes tests help rule out dangerous causes -CHEST X-RAY/ CT CHEST= to see lungs and airways -SPUTUM TEST= to check for TB, infection, or abnormal cells -ENT check with LARYNGOSCOPY- to look at vocal cords and throat -BLOOD TEST=CBC, ESR, Blood sugar, kidney and liver function -BLOOD PRESSURE MONITORING
These are essential. Ayurveda supports you, but ignoring modern diagnostic tools is very risky

Coughing up blood, known as hemoptysis, along with a chronic cough and throat discomfort could indicate several underlying issues, some of which may require urgent medical attention. Given the longevity and severity of your symptoms, it’s vital to consult a healthcare professional immediately to rule out any serious conditions such as tuberculosis, chronic bronchitis, or other respiratory issues.
From a Siddha-Ayurvedic perspective, a persistent cough with blood could suggest an aggravated Pitta dosha, which may lead to heat and inflammation in the respiratory channels. To help balance this, you can try a few practical steps. First, incorporating cooling and soothing herbs can be beneficial. Licorice (Mulethi) tea can help soothe the throat and balance Pitta. To prepare, boil 1 teaspoon of dried licorice root in a cup of water, strain, and drink twice a day.
Additionally, enhancing your Agni, or digestive fire, is crucial as it influences overall health, including respiratory function. Consume a glass of warm water with a pinch of turmeric and a teaspoon of honey in the morning on an empty stomach. This combination helps boost immunity and reduce inflammation.
Maintaining a diet that avoids spicy, fried, and heavily sour foods may also be supportive. Focus on a diet that includes fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole grains that are not overly heating. Make sure to stay hydrated with warm or room temperature water to aid Kapha balance in the respiratory system.
While these Ayurvedic measures might support general respiratory health, do prioritize visiting a medical professional to undergo any necessary tests for accurate diagnosis. Delaying formal medical evaluation is not recommended considering your symptoms, particularly the presence of blood.
