PNEUMONIA-Cough, often producing mucus (sputum) from the lungs. Mucus may be rusty or green or tinged with blood.
Fever, which may be less common in older adults.
Shaking, "teeth-chattering" chills (one time only or many times).
Fast, often shallow, breathing and the feeling of being short of breath.
Chest wall pain that is often made worse by coughing or breathing in.
Fast heartbeat.
Feeling very tired (fatigue) or feeling very weak (malaise).
BRONCHITIS
Chronic bronchitis usually begins as a mild cough, sometimes called a smoker’s cough. The cough may be deeper in the morning and cause you to bring up a yellowish mucus called phlegm. You may wheeze and feel short of breath. With time, the symptoms can become so severe that you have difficulty breathing and must restrict your normal activities. Chronic bronchitis can lead to emphysema, which is a life-threatening lung disease, as well as an incurable lung condition called chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Symptoms of chronic bronchitis occur most often during the winter.
Well I hope this information can help you but I think you need to see your family doctor cause you may need medication for what ever you have good luck and feel better
