Hi folks, anyone got symptoms of coughing for more than a month since New Year?
I've been minor coughing for like 1.5 months+ now.
Normally is just coughing out yellow colour phlegm in the afternoon, then the rest of the day will become normal.
Breathing so far ok, with some days are bad.
No sore throat throughout the period.
Been jabbed for Flu Vaccine for 2023 around July last year.
Previous Doctor claims might be caused by Lung Inflamation from the dusts in the environment I stayed... that I attempt to clean up.
Or aircond usage coughing lungs to become too dry? Dust mites.
I've been drinking various brands of Cough Medicines + Phlegm Remover as well.
From clinic's prescription's black cough syrup, to "Uphadyl + Expectorant" to Dextrophan, FluiFort Syrup (Carbocysteine Lysine Salt 9%), Holistica Coflix, Mucoway/Muconac N-acetylcysteine 600mg
Thinking whether I need to go see a Lung specialist in the KL region for further follow up for my mysterious case.

oh hey fellow sufferer
i've been coughing since early Dec, initially had fever. Nearby clinic doc that I went to said it's acute bronchitis for me, but I know that term just the general diagnosis for persistent cough that lasted more than a month.
was given few rounds of cough syrup, antibiotic (only the first week), antihistamine, etc for the past 3 months..
It's getting much better now, but not fully recover. still some mild coughing sometimes.. my coughs kinda on and off weirdly enuff... some days I might cough a bit more, some days it just went away.. non-smoker btw.
my suspicion is that it's asthma for me, it's in the family, never really had asthma attack before, but probably due to age, i'm probably now more prone to it.
anyway it's not a bad idea for u to do lung x-ray & consult with specialist, i know I should too, but goddamn am I lazy.
