[|Human|] I HAVE A DRY COUGH @OCCASIONAL CENTRAL CHEST PAIN @COUGH UP WHITE SPUTUM. WHEN I RETIRE TO BED IF I LAY ON MY BACK MY UPPER CENTRAL CHEST IS BUBBLY BUT WHEN LYING ON MY RIGHT SIDE IT IS BETTER. MY DOCTOR GAVE ME 500mg AMMOXYLLIN 7DAY COURSE OVER THE PHONE. WHAT COULD THIS CHEST COMPLAINT BE.
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Chest pain with whitish sputum is commonly seen in lower respiratory tract infection (LETI) and bronchitis. Amoxicillin is antibiotic and good Chat Doctor.  But if you are smoker then bronchitis is more likely. So better to consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system, chest x-ray and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test). Chest x-ray is needed to rule lung infection. PFT is must for the diagnosis of bronchitis. You may need inhaled bronchodilators and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS). So consult pulmonologist and discuss all these. First diagnose yourself and then start appropriate treatment. Quit smoking if you are smoker. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
