My coughing is worse than ever How do I figure out if it.

I am suffering from a slight fever, but my coughing is worse than ever. How do I figure out if it is the cough which accompanies any other fever or whether something more on the lines of bronchitis? I ask because I smoke close to a pack a day (not sure if that is relevant though).

smoking and coughing goes hand in hand... and increases your chances of bronchitis and other diseases... go see a doctor
