Suggest Remedies For Severe Cold, Cough And Wheezing
2 days ago I got this big cold or pneumonia I think. I can't sleep much as I cough, sneeze, can't breath well laying down. Alot of weezing & ragged breathing. It's only half as bad during the day. I've been taking some Vitamin C pills & rubbing Vic's on my chest. It just helps a little bit.
Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As a physician I would like to tell you that according to the symptoms you have described, you are definitely suffering from pneumonia. I would suggest you take a full antibiotic course for 7 days like Tab Cefpodoxime, Tab Sinarest-LP and Tab Rantac. I would also like to tell you that you should visit a physician as soon as possible as you need to be evaluated for wheezing and related medicines could be prescribed only after clinically examining the patient.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Abhijeet
