What Could Cause Recurred Cough With Sensation Of Smoke While Breathing?

Hi. I had a bad chest infection 5 months ago that took 3 months to clear. My chest & lung X-Rays were clear. I was also coughing badly but that improved although never went away alltogether. I am now coughing badly again and now have a sensation of being in a smokey atmosphere when I breathe. This has been going on for 5 months now and I am beginning to despair that I shall ever get better

Hello,

Don't worry, first of all. Just relax, get done chest x-ray, sputum culture, and if required CT scan of the chest. Get done pulmonary function tests (PFTs) also, which will rule out any asthma.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Manish Variya
