Why does my Mother keep coughing?

Sunday, April 4th, 2010

My mother is addicted to tobbacco, She is in complete denial. She is allways coughing, At night and after smoking. She says it’s a cough yet she has had it for over two years now. I convinced her to go to the doctors, She said the doctors said Her throat was swollen and he gave her antibiotics and sent her on her way. I am not convinced.. We know it isn’t lung cancer or anything to serious due to her being screened a few years ago.

What could it be? She smokes roughly 20 cigarettes a day, maybe more.

My mom is 50 years old heavy chain-smoking woman for years. She is on her 3 packs a day habit with no intense to quit or cut it down. She is smoking for about 25 years, and she is always with a ciggie in her mouth smoking like a chimney and every day she smokes more and more. She also likes to smoke two cigs at once saying that she really needs to smoke more to feel good. In a recent years she started to smoke cigars on a daily purpose, she is really deeply inhaling them and says that she likes big smoke that fills her inside. She has a female friends about her age, who also smokes a lot and when they come to our house it is smoke everywhere i’m almost out of breath.
And my mom changed a lot. She looks older than she is, she got wrinkles on her face too early, she has a yellow tar stained teeth and very bad breath, she is always coughing a lot and constantly out of breath, sometimes i noticed that she is feeling dizzy, but she says she is ok. Is it a big problem?
