A persistant cough which lingers and becomes more congested is often a sign of broncitis or pneumonia. While pneumonia is sometimes overlooked, it remains a life-threatening illness, that can cause permanent scarring of your lung tissues, as well as lead to serious respiratory illnesses such as asthma. Seeking proper treatment for a cough that won’t go away is essential to ensuring the best care for your lungs. And since you only have the one set, you should take care of them.
“Pneumonia can be a life-threatening infection, and no matter how severe your case is, your body needs time to heal. The U.S. National Heart Lung and Blood Institute suggests how to recover from pneumonia: Get plenty of rest. Follow your doctor’s treatment plan. Take all medications as directed, and always finish any antibiotic prescription. Talk to your doctor about any necessary follow-up care.”
