How To Treat Dry Cough And Wheezing Caused Due To Chronic Bronchitis?

Hi, Im 47years old and been coughing now for almost 2 years . i done all test / bronchoscopy, laringoscopy, ct chest, breathing test for asthma, allergy test, ...and all of them are good. I have problem with reflux and im taking Nexium 40g per day. Im checked few years ago my heart and all was good. They took biopsy during my bronchoscopy and they told me about my chronic bronchitis thad I used to have sometimes before. Few times they gave me some steroids for 9 days and its helped me but just on the short time. Now Im still coughing and wheezling specially when Im going to bed (gargling and bubbling sounds with cough). I realy dont know what to do because Im spending lots of money, Im tired all the time, frustrated becoause I cant do much with this annoying most of the time dry cough. Maybe you can help me with some advice. Thank you

Hi,

To have a specific advise you need to consult a chest physician. After getting investigated you would be offered specific medications which would have antibiotic, bronchodilators (in form of inhaler, histamine blocker drugs as per need. You need to avoid allergens and continue with regular inhalations with minimum required doses of medication and lead a happy, trouble free life.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
