Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe, you have inhaled some dust, and it caused the allergy, and irritation, and caused the formation of the phlegm in the lungs.
It is causing the discomfort in the chest, and cough.
I advise you to consult a chest physician for diagnosis and treatment.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms cifixime, theophylline, citrizine, phenylephrine, if necessary steroids may be necessary.
wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
