Coughing Every Day For Over 1 Month
by coughingforawhile, Jul 27, 2007 10:23PM
I have been coughing for over a month and i can't seem to get rid of it. It started a week before i went on a cruise in the middle of June. It got worse on the cruise but then a little better by the end of it. Now a month later it is still the same as the last days of the cruise. The coughing does produce phlem, sometimes yellow in color, but mostly white/clear. The coughing does not hurt, it is just bothersome. It does not get worse when i lay down and i haven't been waken up by it. My breathing is normal and not affected by the cough. It just feels like there is something there i need to cough up, but only phlem is produced. I am 20 years old and a non smoker. Let me know what it could be and if I should get it checked out. Thanks very much for your help!

My son who is 6 was diagnosed with pneumonitis....similiar to pneumonia. He was coughing a lot with fever for about a week.
I'm always concerned with any kind of cough...I would get it checked out by the doctor since it's lasted so long.
:)
It doesn't hurt to call the doctor or allergist and get checked out.
Good Luck!
