Persistent cough from 4 days
Hi, I have persistent cough from 4 days. Sometimes very thick and little phlegm comes out . Rt pcr test is negative .
However since I have asthma from childhood, it's something causing me wheezing breath.
As a maintenance inhaler I am using aerocort and asthalin as a rescue inhaler.
Cough syrup used is ambroxol hcl, guaiphensein and terbutaline.
Kindly suggest me best treatment to overcome this.

Your asthma seems not to be controlled properly as per your current inhalers and symptoms. There could be an associated super added infective component as well. You need to see a Pulmonologist for proper evaluation and needful advice.
