I normally suffer from Bronchitis when I get sick. But being a single mom, I don t have time for myself, I take regular medicine, haven t gone to a doctor in 5 years, I do not smoke cigarets. I have been feeling tired, my chest feels like it has fluid, when I cough I have lots of flem, & reeently I feel like their is something on my throat that s stuck there
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. You probably had an infection which has worsened your bronchitis. Get a chest x-ray done to rule out infection. Possibility of bronchitis is more in your case. So better to consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test). PFT is needed for the diagnosis of bronchitis. It will also tell you about severity of the disease and treatment of bronchitis is based on severity only. You may need inhaled bronchodilators and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS). Don't worry, you will be alright. Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.
