<human>: I have been coughing, wheezy sometimes, and discomfort in my chest area (bra is uncomfortable) for about 5-6 days now. No fever that I know of, but I am tired. I have used my inhaler (broncho-dilator), but it hasn t helped. When I cough, it s so hard that I pee myself and my head hurts and I start wheezing. Should I go to Urgent Care or the ER, or is this something that will take care of itself in time?
<bot>: Hello, Coughing, wheezing and chest pains are commonly seen in lung infection or bronchitis. So, it is better to consult pulmonologist and get done a clinical examination of the respiratory system, chest x-ray and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test). A chest x-ray is needed to rule out lung infection. PFT is must for the diagnosis of bronchitis. You may need antibiotics and long-acting inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or albuterol) and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) (budesonide or fluticasone). Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
