I have seen three different doctors and each have told me i had something different. One toldme i had viral bronchitis, one told me I had the flu and the third told me i had bacterial bronchitis. My symptoms are this...a cold/burning feeling in my chest that causes me to cough sometimes, and a feeling of a lump in my throat, as if i am about to cry, that has been there for about 3 months. I have been having the chest feeling and the cough since december. The cough started out dry, then i was having greenish/brown mucus coming up, then went dry again. i had a low grade fever for about one day over the last three months. please help.
Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor, The symptoms suggests me that you are having bacterial infection of the respiratory tract, which as lead to these symptoms. You may require sputum examination and sputum culture to know the organism causing these symptoms. These investigations help us to know the organism responsible for your symptoms. Based on your report, we can decide the antibiotic to which you are sensitive. I suggest you to consult the pulmonologist for physical examination and appropriate treatment. Thank you.
