Suggest Treatment For Sore Throat And Heaviness In The Chest Area
hi I am a 50 year old woman and in the last 3 months I have a semi sore throat and some heaviness in my chest, I also have a cough that wont go away. I have a wet cough. I m tired all the time and I feel like I have an excess of mucas that I ant get rid of. I am a smoker a pack a day. I m not sure if I should be concerned or if its just a lingering cold.
No a cold such long enough should be properly checked . You have to go to a pulmonologist dear . Since you are a smoker too it could be a reduction of lung volume or an infection or even I Hope so it is not but a tumour. Please get it checked dear asap.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
