My throat is killing me.. I don't cough up phlegm as often, its more of a dry cough now with some phlegm every now and then. I'm coughing every 5 minutes at least it seems and it just feels like my throat is being ripped apart. I decided I'd quit smoking pot until this passes, as I was doing so the other night and it just hurt really bad too. Anyways any advice? Do I just have a sore throat that needs to pass? I'm thinking of picking up some throat spray today...

I tried running one lap of the track and shortly there after I started coughing. Throughout that night and that next day I was coughing up yellow phlegm. I'm not sure what this means, but I really don't want to go to the doctors and waste my money. They'll just give me some nose spray, inhalers and send me on my way. If anyone can help please feel free to email me at tes_scott***@**** Thank you. Good Luck Everyone!

00 am. Last night I was throwing up and having a really hard time breathing between periods of coughing and vomiting. My airway was definetly tight, but it was more like I couldn't take a breath, like the muscles in my airway wouldn't work or forgot how or something. Weird! I don't have a whooping sound, however for the first time last night I did have a strange sound coming from the airway when I finally could take a breath.

I constantly (day and night)cough up phlegm. Sometimes choke on it when I lay down. Sometimes its clear but sometimes its yellow and very thick. Been doing this so long its normal to me. Is this a sign of something that needs to be treated? Never been diagnosed with asthma or any other respiratory condition.

This is very aggravating as mine is not only at night but a dry hacking cough that i can feel phlegm come up into my throat and is usually a white or very very light yellow. Also have in the morning a sore throat and packed nose that produces green mucus after a warm shower. Any ideas?

Coughing and NIGHT sweats are characteristics of TB. If you haven't had a PPD you might consider having one done. It's unlikely the normal population would get TB. Have you had a chest x-ray? What did it show? I had a very similar problem to what you are experiencing (almost all the same symptoms). I had a very persistent dry cough and I started coughing so badly I would gag and couldn't sleep. I also felt like I had a marble stuck in the back of my throat.

Hi All, my 3 year old has been on anti-biotics for 2 years until Jan 2010 when her specialist decided to try and get to the bottom of why she had this chronic cough at bedtime and produces phlegm (not coloured) all of the time day and night.She has been tested for Cystic Fibrosis in the past (sweat test) came back negative. She's been tested for Tethered spine syndrome and Spina bifida occulta - negative. She has bowel problems and needs movicol and sodium picosulphate to move her bowels.

Recently, I have now noticed that hayfever tabs are causing this. Unfortunately too, chesty cough has just arrived and my throat hurts from excessive coughing 2 nights now. So as I recover from blocked nose thru use of Sudafed spray and arrival of rain, the cough is ensuring that I keep awake and my sleeplesness is becoming chronic. If my system even manages to lapse into sleep, the panic attack sets in and I'm promptly awake. Would you please advise as this is ruining my life in general.

it's been 2 weeks since then and my chestwall pain hasn't subsided, still coughing with phlegm, but no fever and sweats.the first phlegm i cough out in the morning is still rusty yellow and all through the day it's saliva and white thing together in the phlegm.please help me. If I have taken 2 weeks of antibiotics already why is there pain still when i breathe, sneeze or cough?now i couldnt tell if i still have shortness of breathe because i cant really breathe deep.When will the pain go away?

I have also had a fever for the past few days, where I would go go sleep whilst feeling extremely cold, yet wake up in the middle of the night due to night sweats! However, that has cleared now, and I am feeling considerably better, my only problem now is that my throat has been feeling quite blocked , and I have coughed up a tiny bit of phlegm of past 2 days now. But today when I felt really irritated by it, I coughed to take it out..

MY THROAT FEELS DRY AND IT ALWAYS HAPPENS AT NIGHT DURING SLEEP, THAT TICKLE AND THE COUGH STARTS ALL BY ITSELF AND I FEEL LIKE I MAY BE FOUND DEAD ON THE FLOOR. IT TAKES ALL I HAVE TO START TRYING TO BREATHE THROUGH MY NOSE, I GET RED FACED, FACE WET WITH TEARS, IT IS THE MOST AWFUL FEELING. GOING TO DOCTOR ON MONDAY, SEE IF THAT HELPS. I COUGH ALL THE TIME BUT THESE EVENTS AT NIGHT ARE SO VERY SCARY. I JUST CAN'T GET AIR, LAST NIGHT I HAD A HARD TIME EVEN GETTING AIR INTO MY NOSE.

She was well and did not cough for 12 months. At age 4 1/2 she started coughing again. The cough is clear with some white or some light yellow. It looks kind of lacy. She usually gives 1 cough or no cough and out it comes. It is about the size of a quarter. Sometimes it is clear. Every once in a while, she will have a day of no sputum at all. Her ped. said it is just allergies. No wheezing past 6 years. Allergic to dust mites, dogs and cockroaches.

I get a sore throat (not tonsils but when you swallow) I now go straight on antibiotics and use Bricanyl inhaler although it doesnt seem to have much effect except to cause alot of mucus coughed up from the lungs. It causes me to have spasm coughing and if I cannot control this to 3 or 4 coughs my windpipe closes over making it hard to breath in or out. The last one about 2 years ago stopped me breathing in and out completely for 10 to 15 seconds and I thought I had bought it.

It's big and ugly. I cough up clear and colored phlegm. The left side of my diaphram hurts and sometimes I cough so hard that it's uncontrollable. As embarassing as it may be, the coughing gets so bad that it would trigger me to pee ( a squirt each time a hard cough occurs). ugh!! I'm only in my early 30's and it seems like my problems are just getting worse by the day. I will definitely come back to post if I have any helpful hints because I feel your pain.

On New Year's eve I had a fever and it seemed like the flu. Then after 10 days or so or cough, fever (up to 102), night sweats, etc., I went to the walk-in "urgent care" clinic (I called my regular doc and they said they have "no appointments" -- ever, with Brown and Toland Blue Cross -- sometimes I can get an appointment but it's in like 3-4 months from when I call). So the doc said I had walking pneumonia -- no xray, no tests.

Thank you _______________ _______________ Dear Gloriann, Your mother has a number of symptoms, none of which point to any condition in particular, though a few come to mind. Your best bet is to find a good internist to completely evaluate your mother.

metal taste in mouth, cramping in lower abdomen at times (esp in morning), night sweats on chest/neck area only(3 times). NONE OF MY SYMPTOMS WORSEN AFTER PO INTAKE & I'M NOT ON ANY MEDICATION! --I went to the doctor 6 wks ago, who upon exam said he heard "gurgling" in the spot I pointed to. X-ray was neg for anything. He said he thought I had pulled a muscle in the lining of my lungs or chest or something and that it may last up to 4 wks.

I'd have thought you be coughing a lot if you had exceess phlegm. Could it rather be from the digestive system - bile? When you 'cough it up' are you coughing from the lungs/throat or actually vomitting from the stomache/esophagus? i used to have a post nasal drip - excess respiritory mucous - when i got up I'd have a lot of coughing and that led to vomiting acid. I also had GERD which was fixed with a op to tighten the lower esophagal sphinchter (where it meets the stomache).

thick, foamy,sticky phlegm; night sweats; lung congestion; coughing; and fortunately have leaned to control the vomiting. Lately, with the help of a doctor, I have been focusing on the diagnosis of Candida. I am not much for using drugs to fight the problem, as the drugs in my opinion cause additional issues. I started using an herbal mixture especially meant for Candida with limited success.

Last week i had gone out with some friends ,since the weather was cold,I'd worn a thick jacket.I was sweating inside.That night a cough broke out and three days later its still strong.I get a small pain at the back of my head [lower half] when i wake up after a night of coughing. The cough is deep and sometimes brings out a very saline [salty] phlegm.The cough is aggravated while speaking.Sucking on a candy / strepsils brings some relief.

She clears her throat some during the day. She never coughs at night. She has had the sweat test twice to rule of CF and has had her immune system checked to make sure she is making anitbodies etc. This was normal. All her bloodwork is normal. She has been to the allergist and is allergic to dust mites, cockroaches and dogs. The pulmonologist put her on asmanex adult dose but it didn't make any improvement after a couple of months.

I don't know if anyone has had this kind of problem that I am having but here is what i have been getting. Last Friday night into Saturday, I started to get congested with phlegm with the tightness in my chest and thought it was my asthma but I didn't have my Proventil (rescue inhaler/albuterol), so I took Flovent which didnt help that much but helped clear some of the phlegm.

Hi, I'm a 24 year old male. I've been having dry coughs for 3 weeks now and I'm worried. I have been taking medicine for more than 2 weeks now but the coughing still persists. I thought that I might have TB so I searched the internet for symptoms and three of those listed matches what I have been experiencing.

If you are coughing up yellow phlegm you have developed a drug resistant infection and need to go back to your physician immediately.
