I've been dealing with a cough for about a week now, and it's starting to make it hard for me to breathe. Do you have any advice on what I should do?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It sounds like you may be experiencing a respiratory infection. I recommend taking Robitussin or Mucinex to help relieve your cough and improve your breathing. These medications can help loosen mucus and make coughing more productive. Additionally, you may consider using a humidifier at home to help ease your symptoms. If your symptoms persist or worsen, you will need a strong course of antibiotics, for which your need to go to the hospital.
