Persistent Coughing

A cough is a natural reflex to help clear and protect the airway. An occasional cough is normal, and typically a cough will go away on its own but what if a cough lingers and lasts for weeks. Join Dr. Sybille Liautaud and Dr. O’Neil Green, Pulmonary Critical Care, Baystate Pulmonary Non-CF Bronchiectasis Clinic, for a discussion about coughs that are the result of damaged airways, non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis, and non-tuberculosis myobacteria. Learn how they are diagnosed and treated.
