Stop smoking, see MD: Tobacco use is associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) as well as recurrent bronchitis and a whole host of cancers. You need to quit or at least cut down on your tobacco use, there are otc medications available. If your breathing or coughing is worsening, you need to see a doctor for a thorough exam and consideration for medications for your cough and mucus. Drink more h20!
