Ugh. I am, like, coughing up a lung right now. |
|
It's true. I'm all in my house with disease.
Well, actually, the cough is the only thing (physically) wrong with me right now.
Still, it's a little worrying, since I've actually been coughing stuff up. Eww.

1. AspieGrrl, this may sound gross but, |
|
if the "stuff" turns another color ( yellow or green) call the doctor ASAP.
That's when it turns into an infection.
I hope you feel better real soon!
:hug:

2. I've been hacking phlegm, but not coughing it yet... |
|
Is yours red at all?
If so, see doctor, NOW.

4. If your ribs start to ache even when you're not coughing |
|
you may have actually coughed hard enough to crack a rib or strain a ligament or something.
Happened to my stepdad a while back.
