I've been coughing for over a week already?!


Question: I've been coughing for over a week already?
i've been having a terrible cough since monday, & starting tomorrow, it will be over a week! my parents both smoke around me, & have been for my whole life. i'm 13 now & i'm used to it, but could that be affecting me now? i've tried cough drops for about five-six days now& they're not working? can anyone give me some remedies? i have school& i can't be sick for it. also, when i cough, my throat feels like it's being torn a small hole through. if you can help, please do. thanks guys. ?

Answers:

Go see a doctor, there is a cough going round but recently my friend had bronchitus and it was similar to what evryone else had. The sooner you go the earlier you will be cured. Yes the smoking will affect your air quality and second hand smoke is just as toxic as smoking yourself!



its just a small bug going around i had it for almost 2 weeks but it passed
no worries
