Cough with exercise: There are many reasons for coughing with exercise. A common reason is asthma. About 80% of people with asthma have exercise as a trigger. A lung specialist can determine what the cause is and an appropriate treatment. A person over 5 years old will be able to perform lung function tests to assist in diagnosis.
