Hi. I understand your concern s. You will need to undergo a detailed examination and investigation like chest x ray to look for any lung infection. consult a pulmonologist for the same at the earliest.

Need details like since how many days you are using that hot tub, how many days you are suffering from cough, other symptoms like breathlessness, fever etc., all are important for assessment. Better to consult a pulmonologist for complete evaluation and management.
