What Causes Tickle Feeling In Lung And Throat With Cough After Quitting Smoking?

Hi I have this really annoying tickle feeling in my lower lung and throat and its causing persistent coughing. I quit smoking a like a week ago. But I also have a deveated septum which makes breathing through my nose kinda of hard.. I have always gotten sick really easy and my mothers side of the family has a lot of problems with emphazemia so I m a little worried. I smoked for about 10-11 years. I just want to stop coughing its driving my bf crazy

ENT Specialist 's  Response
Hi,
It would be advisable to get yourself examined by a physician right away.
It can be - pneumonia, bronchitis, or simply an upper respiratory tract infection.
You may need an X Ray.
