[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. By your history and description, possibility of lung infection (pneumonia) and bronchitis is more. Both of them can cause coughing, phlegm production, breathing difficulty, sweating etc. So immediately consult pulmonologist and get done 1. Clinical examination of respiratory system 2. Chest x-ray to rule out pneumonia 3. PUT (pulmonary function test) for the diagnosis of bronchitis. You will need higher antibiotics, inhaled bronchodilator (formoterol or albuterol) and inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) (budesonide or fluticasone). Don't worry, you will be alright. But first diagnose yourself and then start appropriate treatment. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
