Hi, so it's been close to 1 month since I have cough which was in the stages like first 2 weeks purely dry cough, which ultimately resulted in the abdominal pain. This eased through in the 3rd week when I was able to put out the phlegm. We conducted chest pa view X-ray and results were completely normal, it said everything was clear. So I thought it's just a matter since I am back to normal state. But lately I have trouble while coughing up, which results into lack of breathing space and causing wheezing and ultimately I end throwing up. This behaviour has happened for the first time in my medical history and rather the whole cough duration is one of kind. Usually in the past when I had cough it was purely due to cold or fever and it used to last not more than a week. I am not sure what to do really. Feeling confused. PS: I take homeopathy. But along with the medicine and home remedies like honey, ginger juice and turmeric milk, I am still not perfectly fit. Any help is welcome. Thanks. Address - mulund east, mumbai.

In cases of prolonged cough, only x-ray is not enough. Better have exam of sputum for 3 consecutive days to rule out tuberculosis. Also go for check up for any asthmatic tendency.
