How Can cold Along With Breathlessness Be Treated?
suffering from bad cold.....thought I was getting better, but I am having problems breathing...have to stay setting up. Have been using nyquill - which allows me to sleep in a recliner. Last cold I had was 2012.....do not recall the issues with breathing.....is there anything I can do to reduce the congestion...I have tried taking a hot shower which did help a little.
If you have breathing difficulties especially with lying (making you set up) I would personally suggest you should see your doctor and get few tests like X-ray, ECG and echo if needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Mahboob Ur Rahman , General & Family Physician
