A member asked:

Coughing (sounds dry?) for about 5 months now. age 18, white phlegm turning green past few days, bacterial/viral? cancer? (rarely smoke)

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Need more info: It is not likely to be cancer. However, it is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without further history, physical examination, and may imaging and lab tests. Cough for five months warrants seeing your doctor.
