A member asked:
What is "post viral tussive syndrome"? i can't find it on webmd.com or in google searches. my doctor tells me i have this. i would like more information. thanks...

Tussive : Tussive means cough. So it means that a patient has a viral infection that has affected the lungs, and now is causing coughing. This can be a very frustrating problem but it usually resolves on its own. If it isn't resolving, or if you have fever or shortness of breath, then see your doctor again immediately.
