Question by rachelxelite: Chest Congestion No Fever?
I have chest congestion, and loose my voice quite often, but i feel fine other than coughing up phlegm and the runny/stuffy nose, and sinus drainage, no worn down, body aches or anything, occasionally my eyes do bother me like itchyness and dry. I believe this is allergies, i have had no fever or anything but my mucus is sometimes a nasty green,yellow or brown. Is that normal for allergies, and what are some remedies or relief offered, as i am allergic to gaufenicin.

Answer by C A Another possibility that I think is likely based on your symptoms is chronic bronchitis. You don’t usually get a fever with bronchitis and it will cause you to cough up yellow or green phlegm. It also causes chest congestion. It may be related to allergies and/or a sinus infection that causes you to have mucus building up in your chest creating a breeding ground for bacteria, then you get sick. I would really strongly suggest going to see the doctor, preferably an ear, nose, and throat doctor who can properly diagnose the problem and help you treat it. I wouldn’t suggest just trying home remedies at this point as it sounds like you have been sick off and on for quite awhile.
Question by Paul S: I recently went to the doctors and was given a Z-Pack for a sinus infection now I have a red rash on my chest?
This past week I was feeling pretty sick so I went to the doctors and was given a Z-Pack for a sinus infection, last night I took the first dose and woke up this morning with light red dots on my chest and maybe some really lite ones on my face. Should I stop taking Z-Pack? If so, will I still get better? I don’t want it to get worse.

Answer by nicole Yes!!!!!! If you honestly think that the rash started just after you took it!!!!!! The thing about zpack that people like is not so many pills. But u only take it for 5 days and it stays in your system for 14. It could progressly get worse. But watch signs of swollen tounge or shotness of breath. So if I were you I would call the doctors office that gave it to me and tell them to give you something else also tell them to make sure they put in your chart that you have a possible allergy to macrolide antibotics!!!! And take some benedryl!!!
Have gotten over my cold but the constant rattling when I breathe just drives me nuts as I can’t seem to get it to break loose. I don’t smoke and am good health other wise. I don’t know if my sinuses are draining at night and causing this but the feeling of something being in my throat causes me to clear it constantly. Any suggestions ?
I’ve been battling a sinus infection for the past month and yesterday and today it’s gotten worse( I am taking antibiotics) but I now have severe chest congestion as well…any help?
