What are the complications of chronic cough that goes untreated?

Chronic coughing can affect your life in negative ways that disrupt your daily routine. The most obvious is that you can become extremely tired because you can't sleep (insomnia). Coughing nonstop can also make your muscles hurt and break your ribs.

You might also find that you have:

  • Headache/dizziness.
  • Urinary incontinence (loss of bladder control).
  • Subconjuctival hemorrhage (minor bleeding in the eye).
  • Hernia.
  • Syncope (fainting or passing out).
