I'm really having trouble breathing easily, even though I don't have asthma. It's like there's this hard mucus or phlegm stuck in my chest or lungs that's blocking the air. And every time I breathe, I make this whistling sound. Could you suggest some medicine for this?

Question

I'm a bit worried because I've had a cough for the past 23 days. I do a lot of data entry work on my computer and sometimes scratch cards too, so I'm concerned that maybe I've inhaled some silver dust. I've seen some dust on my clothes, bed, and even my rajai. Could this be causing my cough? What should I do about it?
