View Full Version : chesty cough
Is it normal to get a chesty barking cough even though you havent got a cold? I had the sniffles about 3 weeks ago, just for a few days, but the barking started after that, was tickly and dry at first but now chesty - no phlegm. Scared it might be TB or pneumonia

Thanks guys, I've just got something from the chemist for it, and the fact that I had to have my eye flushed out today due to some grit that blew in has taken my mind off it. What are we like eh?

a cold can go into the chest and take its time doing so.
also i have had a feeling that i need to cough for weeks. had all sorts of tests in the hospital even though my true friend marcia diagnosed it as another symptom of anxiety hyperventilation and the like
all tests were clear and they damn well better not have got it wrong.lol
i feel this may be anxiety or simply time of the year and the cold leaving its mark
hope this helps
