I seem to be suffering allergies for a few days (not normally) and having post nasal, heavy coughing that can upset my stomach and constant throat clearing. Also, feel tired and chest is heavy. Is this normal?Age 42, wght 148, on statin and bp medication.
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Since you are having allergy, we should rule out allergic bronchitis in your case. Chest tightness, coughing, post nasal discharge etc. are commonly seen with allergic bronchitis. So consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test). PFT will not only diagnose bronchitis, but it will also tell you about severity of the disease and treatment is based on severity only. You will mostly improve with inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or albuterol) and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) (budesonide or fluticasone). Also take combination of antihistamine (levocetrizine or fexofenadine) and anti-allergic (montelukast) Chat Doctor.  Don't worry, you will be alright with all these. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
