Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Chronic Cough, Shortness Of Breath And Rashes On The Hands?
I have had a chronic cough, shortness of breath and a rash on my hands and the top of my feet for 6 months. The more I do the worse the cough and shortness of breath get. I do not have asthma, T.B, COPD or anything to do with the lungs or bronchial tubes. It feel like it is all in my throat. I do have chronic sinusitis, and acid reflux. The only allergies I have is Reglan and Sulfa based drugs . Do you have any idea what could be going on with me?
Chronic cough and shortness of breath are likely to be associated with respiratory system. I suggest you to consult a pulmonologist for clinical assessment and thus treatment. Rash on hands and feet can be due to infection, insect bite or primary skin condition. I suggest you to consult a dermatologist for clinical assessment and thus management.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shailja Puri, Pathologist and Microbiologist
