Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
Wheezing, mild sputum, cough for the last five days, asthmatic patient and weather change happening. Please advise.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I understand you have wheezing and a productive cough for the past 5 days. You are likely having an acute exacerbation of asthma. It could have been triggered by viral infection, cold environment, allergens such as pollen, dust, strong odor, etc. I would also love to know if you had a fever, runny nose, or are currently having chest pain or shortness of breath. Any contact with a suspected or confirmed COVID-19 positive patient (due to the current pandemic)? Is the color of the sputum, or is the sputum bloody? How many episodes of the same complaints have you had recently?
Kindly, revert back.
Thank you.
