Bronchiectasis

Bronchiectasis is a condition that leads to damage in the airways of the lungs, resulting in the production of excessive phlegm (mucus). While it is generally not curable, various treatments can assist in managing the symptoms. Common symptoms include a persistent cough or the production of phlegm, which may also arise from other issues like chest infections. If you need assistance, you can contact 111 or seek help through the 111 online service. For emergencies, do not attempt to drive to A&E; instead, ask someone to take you or call 999 for an ambulance.
