General Practitioner Questions Coughing

Coughing and tightness in chest

I have been dealing with a dry cough and chest tightness for about a week. I can't laugh hard without having to cough. I figured it was just congestion since I have been coughing up phlim but I figured that would be gone by now. Is this something to worry about or does it just sound like congestion or an infection or something?

It Might be seasonal flu infection causing chest infection, congestion for complete diagnosis go for chest X-Ray And TLC , DLC blood test.. If its normal you need not to worry... just take luke warm water and use eladi vati and sitopladi churna for relief from your congestion .. FOR more remedies you can ask me ....
Thank you
