Suggest Treatment For Severe Cough And Sore Throat

Question: I was sick with a mild cold 3 days last week but then this intense coughing started. I'm gasping for air as if I'm being strangled. My chest isn't tight, my throat feels closed. My sides hurt from the intensity, its worse at night, breathing treatments. Haven't helped. I'm confused and lose feeling in my hands as if they're asleep.

You need bronchodilator.

If still symptoms persist you will need to get chest xray done.
Hope this helps.Please ask if there are doubts.Regards.
