A member asked:

Really bad cough with phelm some sob after coughing multiple times in a short period cause? respiratory infection? bronchitis?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Respiratory infectio: Bronchitis is in the spectrum of respiratory infection. If you have shortness of breath it could be bronchial involvement. You might have asthma component . It is little unusual for a 19 yr old to be on zestoretic (lisinopril and hydrocholorthiazide) which I assume taking for high blood pressure. Have it examined by a doctor as the shortness of breath can be from cardiac causes also.
