A member asked:
Cough that's lasted seven weeks, was on antibiotics for chest infection. been to doctor twice but nothing has been done. it is getting worse.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Chronic cough: A chronic cough requires evaluation for things such as esophageal reflux, post nasal drip, chronic allergies, sinusitis, asthma, and of course tuberculosis or other infections that would not get better with common antibiotics. Sounds like you may need a referral, or a visit to your physician.
