Hi, I am currently 18 years old right now. I have been coughing non-stop for two weeks now, and sometimes my heart would be aching and I would feel a bit suffocated. I went to my doctor and told him about the coughing. He prescribe me a cough syrup, but it does not work. I tried everything.. and I don t know what to do.
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. In my opinion you are having either bronchitis or lower respiratory tract infection (LETI).  As chronic cough (more than 2 weeks) is seen in both these conditions. So consult pulmonologist and get done1. Chest x ray2. PUT (Pulmonary Function Test). Chest x-ray is needed to rule out LETI. PFT is needed to rule out bronchitis. So discuss these things with your doctor and start treatment accordingly.
