Constant cough

2018-01-03 14:31:21
Hi, I have been coughing for almost 1 year. At first I was suspected of tuberculosis and I have been tested negative. Even after that my cough doesn't stop and lately I start coughing up worm like sputum. The cough gets worst at dawn and I start coughing nonstop until my chest and stomach starts aching and there is a wheezing sound.

Spirometry is required. ICS+LABA twice daily Will be helpful. Consult a pulmonologist with the reports who'll guide you with the therapy.
Health Tips
Avoid allergens, irritants. Wear face mask when going outdoors.
