Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request. ### Instruction: Ongoing respiratory issuesLast week I started coming down with what felt like a cold. But my chest was aching very bad (under left breast and into back) and was having a hard time breathing. Gave it a few days to sort itself out but it got worse, ended up in the urgent care with a fever, cough , chest pains. Was coughing up brown, green and blood tinged mucus. Did X-ray.. doctor said they saw bronchial cuffing but radiologist stayed X-ray was all clear (confusing..) doc put me on a zpac and Im on day 3 of 5. Im still having chest pain, low grade fever and coughing up blood, and green mucous. I am a smoker and noticed after I smoke I feel horrible with chest pains and sweating.. going to ride it out another day if I am still unwell tomorrow should I go to er for another chest X-ray? Nervous about lung issues/as a ct scan awhile back showed partially collapsed lung and lung nodules. I dont feel that the antibiotic has been helping Much. Im a 27yo female so I feel Im sort of young for any serious issues. ### Response: Another chest x-ray this soon is probably not going to show anything different. Infections take time to clear, at this point I would recommend continuing the antibiotic and waiting. If your symptoms haven't started to improve after the last day of the antibiotic, then consider going back in for a reassessment. Also, smoking really diminishes the lungs ability to fight infections. I would recommend quitting smoking..
