I have been using a nebuliser for my dry cough, should i be worried about lung damage ?

Nebuliser: Hello, nebulizations normally do not cause any damage to the lung, it would be advisable to go to your family doctor and assess the techniques and medications used for your nebulizations and their adequate follow-up.

No: If a nebulizer is used properly clean properly and ordered by a doctor in general should not cause lung damage

Not likely: Just make sure your nebulizer is in good shape, clean, and using clean water, and everything should be alright.
