Scarring from cold? I coughed pretty damn hard hacking up that phlegm. I even used very forced wheezing.?

Question

Now my cough reflex is still not gone 2 whole weeks after the cold symptoms including phlegm have disappeared. It feels itchy like there is a little water in my lungs, upper bronchol tubes. Did I injure my lung area somehow and will it go away or should I get help?

Answer 1

You may have some reactive airways as a lingering effect of the upper respiratory infection. Likewise, even though your phlegm is gone, you may still actually have the illness although in a later stage. If it persists longer than a few weeks, or colored phlegm or fever returns, see a doctor.

Answer 2

Cough is caused by a number of ailments.
It can be treated by over the counter medicines
or home remedies. More information available

Answer 3

That's scary: Time to run diagnostics
X-rays, CT-Scans, MRI-Scans, Endoscopy, Biopsies?
Try to not cough? Control it?

Boring stuff
