A member asked:

I have cough for over a month that is getting worse, insomnia, chest tightness, shallow breathing, trouble breathing, head pressure ,tightness, dizzy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Get evaluated: A month is too long for a simple viral URI. The possibilities for a cause are numerous & include adult whooping cough where the cough can be free of other symptoms & last 3 months. Other possibilities that require treatment are also possible. Have it evaluated.
