Suggest Treatment For Excessive Coughs And Red Patches On Skin
I have been coughing a lot since getting a couple of colds the last couple of months. Just yesterday though, they satarted to be violent coughing spasms, with me wheezing to catch my breath and getting really prickly skin and red blotches on my skin... Once the coughing spasm died down, so did the prickling and the blotches. But i have never had this before... what is causing the prickly skin and blotches? Thank you

Hello,
Probably you may be suffering from chronic bronchitis. I think you may need to do spirometry and X-ray. Possibly you need to have a prednisolone injection for spasms. Also, b blockers may help.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
