My mom had a coughing issue, she coughed for a whole month. then she took medicine and it left her for 3montgs.. what was her problem?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cold or Flu: Post cold cough can take months to resolve even in immunocompetent patients. If she had fever, chills, or nausea, it could have been the flu, which classically can take longer.
