A cough lasting several years requires a thorough medical evaluation to determine its underlying cause. Common causes include chronic bronchitis, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), or long-term exposure to irritants such as smoking or pollution. It is advisable to consult a pulmonologist for a detailed assessment, which may include a chest X-ray, lung function tests, a CT scan, and possibly allergy screening. Treatment may include inhalers, bronchodilators, and antiallergic or antihistamine medications, along with lifestyle measures such as quitting smoking, staying well hydrated, and avoiding exposure to allergens.

After angioplasty, continue using Formonide 1 mg Respules as prescribed unless advised otherwise by your doctor. Maintain regular follow-ups with your doctor to ensure that your asthma and heart medications are well-coordinated. Avoid strenuous physical activity until medically cleared, adhere to a heart-healthy diet, and take all prescribed medications regularly. Report any new symptoms such as chest discomfort, shortness of breath, or palpitations to your doctor immediately.
