What should i do if i have a really chesty cough?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Identify trigger : The best treatment for a cough is to first try to identify the trigger, so specific treatment can be provided. A cough specialist, such as allergist or pulmonologist can through chest x-ray, breathing test (spirometry) and a thorough history likely find the cause....Then comes the relief!
