Pulmonologist,  's  Response
Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Heating and burning in chest with coughing is suggestive of bronchitis (inflammation of airways).
So better to consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test).
PFT is must for the diagnosis of bronchitis. And 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).
So consult pulmonologist, get done PFT. First diagnose yourself and then start appropriate treatment. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
