What Causes Severe Headache, Cough And Breathing Difficulty?
I have a horrible headache that comes with a cough that won t quit. I rattle worse that a babies rattle and it is extremely hard to breathe. I cannot take a lot of over the counter, cough drops is my only medicine to go with this. Then I follow it up with a medium to low grade fever.l

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms seem to be related to a respiratory tract infection.
I suggest to do a chest x-ray for further evaluation.
Meanwhile I suggest to use anti-inflammatory medication such as Acetaminophen 3 times a day
I also suggest to use cough suppressant such as Dexometorphan.
If the symptoms continue antibiotics may be needed to treat the infection.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
