Yellow Phlegm, Shortness of breath

2021-08-10 18:43:16
I have been a smoker for 3 years. I started having yellow phlegm for 2 weeks now, so I stopped smoking. I also have difficulty taking deep breaths with a slight backpain when I take in deep breaths. The yellow phlegm has reduced in quantity when I stopped smoking.
