Persistent cough with sputum

2023-05-07 18:11:52
My father is 50 years old. He has been suffering from cough since years now. It has become permanent, sometimes gets reduced with few wet cough syrups but then again erupts. He has wet cough with sputum varying from thick to transparent with no other major symptom. He smokes 'bidi'. I am third year medical student myself, looking for genuine guidance and treatment from a good doctor in Noida. We would like to treat the cause instead of only symptoms. We have never got his Xray chest done pr sputum tests done. Please pour in suggestions. Thankyou Regards, Sonia Singh

It is better to consult pulmonologist with detailed history and reports and treatment taken for better evaluation and treatment.
