Severe coughing

2017-04-01 20:49:31
I have a uncontrollable cough that I've had about a week. I've tried just about all the cough meds in the pharmacy. No other complications. I thought it was allergies because of the pollen in my area. Now I'm kind of congested but I'm not sick. Is there anything I can take

Hello there. I can understand your concern. So you have tried to play doctor doctor already on yourself and found no results because of clear lack of knowledge about anything. Good job. Now go see a pulmonologist and let him do what he does better than you. Best regards. Dr. Anil Kumar Jain. Bangalore.
