What Causes Severe Chest Congestion And Cough?

My boyfriend is fine all day and as soon as he gets ready for bed his chest becomes very congested and he has to cough a lot. He often wakes up in the middle of the night from it. I sleep over in the same room so I don t know why something would effect him and not me. Do you know what it could be?

Hi,

Consult a physician and start on antibiotics.

You have to get a chest X-ray for further evaluation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
