I had bronchitis over the winter (4 months ago or so)it eventually went away but since then I will randomly get the same type of phlegm and a small cough? All I read about is Chronic Bronchitis and it’s freaking me out.
Thank you for this video. I agree with all these points. I also noticed different positions can reduce coughing. Taking cough medicine and albuterol just seems to make things worse.
Thank you Dr Stefan. This was very helpful. I have influenza A atm and just dealing with the sharp pain cough I have whixy produces green red mucus. I have been trying to stay hydrated as much as I can
prayers for all whom are suffering from this. i am on week 4 my daughter is on week 6 😢 it is so bad feeling so poorly and noone can help us they say it will go soon but ita still really sore and really irritating especially at night and when walking 😢😢😢😢
Hey, i hope you're both feeling better. My son has been coughing for 3 months and i for 2 months. We saw several doctors and we have to get a sinus ct scan this month.
@@DrStefanCristianStanel Thanks so much - I did. I got a full work up and apparently there was some minor lung damage from the lung infection, or a previous lung problem that they I never noticed. Apparently, not serious. It may heal up and the chest pain may not have been associated with it. It may just be from the coughing and take time to go away. That said, they scanned me and couldn't find any other abnormalities. Also did some blood work and everything was normal. It could also be post-covid issues. Now I am dealing with the gastritis that I apparently gave myself by worrying too much and my chest is slowly getting better. Thanks for the message.
@@peterwu8471 HI I have the same issue. Cold and cough won't go away. What scans and tests did you do? Also, for lung damage, did doctor advise anything specific? Please reply if possible Thanks
My cough and chest pain lasted for about 8 months. I would suggest going to a doctor to get checked out. I had an x-ray, CT scan, a host of blood tests and nothing significant was found. Eventually, working with a responsible neurologist, I was able to find a possible cause - acid reflux. I tried his approach - short-term PPIs - elevating the top of my bed and not eating after 3 in the afternoon. It seemed to work, after I stopped eating dinners the cough came and went for a while and then disappeared. Another possibility would be post-viral problems from Covid or some other illness. However, this is one of several illnesses I have had that could have dozens of causes. In addition, later in the same year I had an Epstein Barr reactivation - so that may have been a possible cause. I was also horribly overworked... God only knows. @@revenant8061
For that cough (after bronchitis) can we use Symbicort or Ultibro Breezhaler for relief for a month and leave taking it? Is Ultibro Breezhaler as good as symbicort?
Thank you Dr. Stefan, this is an excellent video, very informative… continue the great work.. thank you..🙏

It's been about five weeks for me... thanks for this. I seem to be pretty consistently the same, sometimes a bit better other times worse... strange.
Still coughing... more than 8 weeks. I want to cry. :(
if not improving i would suggest you try and see your doctor

Coughing for 21 months after covid-pneumonia. I was trached and on a ventilator for 8 weeks.
For that cough (after bronchitis) can we use Symbicort or Ultibro Breezhaler for relief for a month and leave taking it?
Is Ultibro Breezhaler as good as symbicort?
Can someone explain the fatigue. It's been there and I was hoping it goes away soon.
good content thank you
My 3 year old has had a cough for 4 weeks. Ow its not all the time but worse at night
Are persistent or post-viral coughs still contagious?
shouldn't be
