Cough

To see in a dream that one is coughing and bringing up phlegm, accompanied by pain in the chest, signifies that one has lodged a complaint against someone concerning his property. If the cough is dry, the complaint will concern his spouse or one of his relatives; but if it is bloody and accompanied by phlegm, it will concern his child. If the cough comes together with nausea, it denotes that his offspring will diminish.

According to another narration: To cough in a dream signifies complaint. Therefore, whoever sees himself coughing in a dream will complain against one of the governor’s close associates.

Whoever sees himself coughing in a dream, and at times his throat becomes obstructed so that his breath is cut off, may be afflicted with an illness.

According to some interpreters: To cough in a dream signifies that the dreamer desires to complain against a man, but has not yet lodged the complaint.

With the right perspective, it can signify restoring balance, recovery, and developing a new understanding.

Uncertainty, indecision, or a tendency to take on excessive burden may be observed.

In the interpretation, the themes of work and responsibility, success and reputation, the emotional tone in the dream, and how the symbol concludes in the dream should be evaluated together.
