Doc if have a one person have cough in 4 months what should do
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Prolonged cough: A persistent cough lasting four months should be evaluated by a physician and a chest x-Ray will be ordered. Even if you're a nonsmoker such a persistent cough needs an investigation and it could be due to infection,postnasal drip,SInusitis or other lung pathology.
