Cough lasting 1month

Question

Asked for Male, 22 Years

Hi I'm suffering from cough from nearly 30 days. I already used medicines (antibiotics and syrup) which were given by general physician but of no use. The cough is not coming frequently but it not completely dead it seems like increasing little bit at night time sometimes. Is there any serious problem regarding this?

Hi. I understand your concerns. Since your cough is been there for more than 2 weeks you will need to undergo a detailed examination and investigations like chest x ray to look for infection. Consult a pulmonologist for the same. Hope your questions were answered. Thanks
