Is A Chest X-ray Needed If The Cold Persists For Long Periods?
hello
i have cold since last two months..
the cold has not shown increase on its hold..as if it has a equilibrium with my body...
i have completed prescribed doses but since there is not much improvement, doctor has suggested to take chest xray...
it seems this problem is due to cough in lungs which is not coming out..
can i try deriphylin?
what is your suggestion?

No deriphyllin is not needed if you are not smoker. Get your xray chest and PNS done to rule put infection in chest or in sinuses.
