What Causes Severe Cough And Greenish To Yellow Sputum?
i have been coughing for almost a month now.with slight fever..there is massive production of sputum-greenish to golden yellow in color.i suspect it to be a case of bronchitis.what should i do?thank u.
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic. I can understand your concern. Yoi are having chronic cough and expectoration (greenish Yellow). These are commonly seen with bronchitis and lung infection (pneumonia). So better to consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system, chest x ray and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test). Chest x ray is needed to rule out lung infection. PFT is must for the diagnosis of bronchitis. You may need inhaled bronchodilators, inhaled corticosteroid and antibiotics according to the diagnosis. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
