Wondering why won't this chest cold go away?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cough: An acute cough lasts up to 3 weeks, and is usually viral in nature. If you have cough with secretions, fever, confusion, breathing fast or shortness of breath, you may benefit from chest x-rays. You definitely can use an exam by MD. Community acquired pneumonia is a real entity and one of the most deadly infectious diseases in the USA. Have you ever smoked? See your MD to get a full exam & be safe
