A chesty cough is a cough that produces mucus, also known as phlegm. It is caused by an infection or inflammation of the airways in the chest, such as bronchitis or pneumonia. The mucus helps to trap bacteria and viruses, and coughing helps to remove it from the airways.

Catarrh is a thick, mucus-like substance that can collect in the nose, throat, and sinuses. It is often caused by a cold or allergies. Catarrh can make it difficult to breathe and swallow, and can also lead to a cough.

If you have a chesty cough or catarrh, it is important to see a doctor if you have any of the following symptoms:

• Fever of 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit or higher
• Difficulty breathing
• Chest pain
• Coughing up blood
• Severe sore throat
• Wheezing

These symptoms could be a sign of a more serious condition, such as pneumonia or bronchitis.
