What Causes Severe Cough And Congestion Despite Taking Pulmicort?
Hi I have been unwell for over week now. I am diagnosed as a seasonal asthmatic and I have been taking my preventative medication (pulmicort) but today I have been coughing up a thick but clear bubbly mucus, as though I am vomitting. Should I see a dr?

Hello dear Greetings
Regarding your symptoms of cough productive of thick mucus following a diagnosed seasonal Ashma I am suggesting that you have developed a Acute chest infection
In view of this please do a chest x-ray and see a pulmonologist specialist with the result and for further clinical assessment and adequate drug prescription
Meanwhile please take the following some antibiotics along with your prescribed pulmicort pending your appointment
I hope this helps Regards
