Depend on your age: it is really depend on your age,and the other circumstances that gut you to have this condition. this is a chronic condition,treatment for the symptoms,and to prevent it from making it worst. the question is why you have it if you are not a smoker,is it a second hand smoking if you have somebody in the house that smoke. is it environmental from work or regular local pollution. follow your doctor.
