Dry cough and wheezing
I have a dry cough which I ignored for almost 2 weeks and now for 4-5days I am feeling very weak and wheezing and feeling breathless also. I have added the prescription the doctor gave me which I have been taking for past 2days...I have also added the x-ray film. Now the new doctor has given me some fresh medicines and also suggested some blood tests. Please tell me what it is because no doctor seem to be telling me the clear diagnosis. I am worried a lot

Hi. I understand your concern s. But there is no prescription there. If chest x ray is normal you will need to undergo 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
