Coughing can sometimes lead to vomiting, especially if the cough is severe or persistent, such as in cases of pertussis (whooping cough).
When you cough a lot, like in the case of pertussis or whooping cough, it can make you throw up. This happens because the coughing is very strong and doesn't stop easily.
Why Coughing Leads to Vomiting:
Pertussis, often called whooping cough, is a good example of a sickness where this happens. The cough is so strong that it can make you feel sick to your stomach and even throw up. If you have a cough that is making you vomit, it might be a good idea to talk to a doctor to see what's going on.
