What Is Tietze Syndrome?
8. Coughing
Coughing can be an extremely unpleasant symptom at times. The action of coughing can be painful for the patient and potentially lead to other complications. One potential outcome of severe coughing is that the patient can develop Tietze syndrome.
If you cough hard enough and persistently enough then it can cause damage to your body, mainly in the chest area. In some cases, it can cause the costochondral joint to become inflamed, potentially leading to Tietze syndrome. If you are coughing too much, then you should get medical help and they may be able to at least reduce the severity of the symptoms.
