Avatar f tn I have severe chest congestion. This has been going on for about 3 months. It's strange because I will have constant congestion and cough one day and the next day I will be almost clear. I know that if I have congestion one day the next day I will not. I plan my days accordingly. My dr. has put me on antiboitics and presidone twice in the last 3 months, I've had a chest x-ray last week, shows nothing. I have had allergies all my life.
Avatar f tn what could be sinus infection, chest congestion and upper body aches, such as in neck, upper arms, shoulders and shoulder blades, for 4 solid months?

He gave me antibiotics, and cortisteroids, decongestants, depo shots and antibiotic shots. I had a chest xray that came back clear.
Avatar n tn I hope you are getting some relief from your chest congestion. Mucus is like poison to the lungs and it must be released for both the sake of your health and your comfort! A natural mucokinetic is found in salt therapy. You should either breathe in the steam from a saline solution with your head tented over a bowl (the economic alternative) or check out the salt pipe inhalers (dry salt inhalation therapy) at: http://www.saltrocks.
Avatar f tn Had a chest x-ray, said the words heaviness in the chest, so went for stress test, etc for the heart. All is great. What it feels like is the chronic post nasal drip I have has caused congestion in my upper chest. However, the weird part is, I really have no cough, and the occasional cough has never brought anything up. In the past, if my chest begins to feel this way, it is followed by the painful cough and coughing stuff up.

Avatar m tn ve sporadically had pin prick blood spots (petechiae)/broken blood vessels under my skin, chest congestion and easy bruising.

Also, does Kaiser deal with testing facilities that use the Elisa test?? Sorry if this question seems redundant, I'm sure it does. Worried!!!

Avatar f tn I continue to experience chest congestion. Why do I still have chest congestion after 3 years?
Avatar m tn I end up with a sore throat for a few days, often accompanied with occasional difficulty swallowing (like a swollen throat), trouble breathing (not sure if chest congestion or because of a swollen throat) and nasal congestion. This has happened whether it's with a regular partner or if it's just a one-time hook up with someone. It seems more likely to happen after aggressive sex, but it happens plenty of times without the sex being aggressive.
