[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. In my opinion you should consult pulmonologist and get done1. Chest x ray2. PUT (pulmonary function test). In your case we need to rule out lung infection and bronchitis. As both of these condition can cause chronic cough and mucus secretion. So chest x-ray is needed to rule out lung infection.PFT is needed to rule out bronchitis. So better to first diagnose yourself and then start appropriate treatment.
