take my consultation plz need proper history
When evaluating a persistent dry cough, particularly in the context of possible asthma or a respiratory infection, sputum analysis can provide useful insights. Although you mentioned that all other tests are normal, a sputum analysis typically serves to assess for infections, inflammation, or other underlying conditions.
Normal Ranges for Specimen Sputum Analysis:
Sputum Color: Should generally be clear or light yellow.
Microbiology Culture: No pathogenic organisms should be present. Normal flora may be detected.
White Blood Cell Count (if applicable): Less than 25 cells per high power field (HPF) in a properly collected sample suggests minimal inflammation.
Eosinophils: Normally should be low; significant eosinophilia can suggest an allergic process.
Culture Sensitivity: Should show no growth of pathogenic bacteria within 48-72 hours.
Follow-up Recommendations:
If the sputum culture shows no growth or normal flora but your symptoms persist, consider other causes such as:
Allergies
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
Post-nasal drip
Chronic bronchitis or other lung conditions
Ensure that inhalers are used properly, as incorrect usage can lead to inadequate symptom control.
You may also consider consulting a pulmonologist for further evaluation if symptoms persist.
