Hello there. I can understand your concern. All these are due to smoking only. Because, smokers do have cough with expectoration and congestion in chest. And smoking also causes increase in gastric acid secretion. You can take a tab. pantakind-D once a day half an hour before food for 5 days. Quit smoking. Steam inhalations twice a day. Consult a pulmonologist in person for further evaluation and management.
