Hi i can not stop coughing and its worse at night feels like i have something stuck in my throate, and then when i wake in the morning i cough and feel really warm and keepcoughing loads of green stuff up been like this for 2 weeks, im taking cough medicine and sucking strepsills.
Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic. I can understand your situation and problem. Coughing at night time with greenish mucus expectoration is commonly seen in bronchitis. So we should first rule out this. So better to consult pulmonologist and get done 1. Clinical examination of respiratory system 2. Chest x ray 3. PFT (Pulmonary Function Test). Chest x ray is needed to rule out other lung diseases like lung infection. PFT is must for the diagnosis of bronchitis. It will also tell you about severity of the disease and treatment of bronchitis is based on severity only. You may need inhaled bronchodilators and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS). Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.
