Brief Answer:
For how long has this been going on?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this. I have reviewed this information and will like to know for how long this has been going on. This is because a simple cough effort can be responsible for this but should it be that this has been going on for a long time, it is unlikely. So if this has been having just for a short while, then observing only at this time is the only measure I would recommend. Let me know what your thoughts are and will address any further concerns you may have.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.
