You could have chronic bronchitis due to smoking. Please stop smoking and see a pulmonologist. If you continue to smoke, the problem is going to worsen over time.

Hi. I understand your concern s. You are having bronchitis due to smoking. Stop smoking and you will need to undergo a pulmonary function test which is needed for the diagnosis as well as to assess severity of bronchitis based on which treatment can be started. Consult a pulmonologist for the same at the earliest.

Hi As you have chest pain when you smoke, try to avoid smoking for long run. That's good for your health and also your loved ones. As a young person cessation of smoking have maximum benefits for you. Kindly keep in your mind. Regarding the pain you need investigations and physical examination. Take a chest x-ray and review. Take care
