I work mowing lawns. I wear a dust mask. i have had a cough and a weazy chest on and off for months. I had an opperation on my veins on my legs 2 years ago and I ended up with post op Phenomina. Then Pharygitis and my throat has never been the same. I generally feel well but i am sick of this chest i have.
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. By your history and description, possibility of bronchitis (inflammation of airways) due to working in lawn is more likely. So better to 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).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.
