[|Human|] I have a prolonged chest conjestion issue right from my childhood. It normally start troubling during winters. A doc suggested me montek lc which I found very effective but when I miss a dose for more than 2 days the problem rises again. What should I do to cure this permanently?
[|AI|]  Hello dear, thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. In my opinion you are having allergic bronchitis at related symptoms. Your history of seasonal variation with improvement after Monte LC suggest more of allergic bronchitis. So better to consult pulmonologist and get done 1. Clinical examination of respiratory system. 2. Chest x-ray. 3. PUT (pulmonary function test). Chest x-ray is needed to rule out lung infection. PFT is needed for the diagnosis of allergic bronchitis. It will also tell you about severity of the disease. You may need inhaled bronchodilators.
