Chest Heaviness After Cleaning Room, Coughing, Itchy Underside Of Neck
Yesterday while cleaning my room, I wound up breathing in quite a bit of dust. Since then, my chest has been feeling a bit heavy and I ve been trying to clear my lungs of it. It feels like when I had bronchitis , but without the other symptoms. When I ve been coughing, the back and underside of my neck has been itchy.

Hello dear...
The symptoms as mentioned in your post suggest that you might be having Allergic bronchitis.
Management includes:
1. Broncho-dilators to relieve obstruction or air passages.
2. Antihistamine preparations for symptomatic relief.
3. Montelukast, which is used as a maintenance therapy to relieve symptoms of seasonal allergies & asthma.
4. Maintain adequate hydration & take a healthy balance diet.
5. Also make sure that you are well protected from cold, dust & other allergens.
Wishing you a good health.
Thanks & take care.
