18 Symptoms of Dangerous Health Conditions Hiding in Plain Sight
Coughing
In today’s context, we might see coughing as a sign of COVID-19. While it’s true, coughing is one of the most common signs of infection with the novel coronavirus, it can also indicate another type of respiratory disease, namely chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
This lung disease is not easily detectable in its early stages. As a matter of fact, according to the COPD Foundation, coughing accompanied by shortness of breath and tightness in the chest often occur before someone is actually diagnosed with COPD.
If your coughing does not go away, don’t hesitate to call your doctor.
