Pulmonologist,  's  Response
Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Yes, you should definitely consult pulmonologist (chest specialist).
You are mostly having bronchitis. And beat treatment fir bronchitis is inhaled bronchodilators and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS).
You are not taking these drugs and hence you are not improving even after 4 weeks.
To prescribe exact dose of these drugs, we need to know the severity of your bronchitis. And for this you should get done PFT (Pulmonary Function Test). This will notify only diagnose bronchitis but will also tell about severity of the disease.
So better to consult pulmonologist and discuss all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
