SIDE EFFECTS ON RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
Respiratory tract gets infected due to regular cough.
Mucus and phlegm are made more but in this cough, the mucus comes more when the cough decreases.
There are cilia like projection in the trachea, which traps small infections and expels them out in the form of phlegm.
But when coughing or infection becomes old then these cilia of the trachea help from the goblet cell to remove more phlegm.
Goblet cell that is in the columnar shape situated in the respiratory tract through this cell making it more mucous in trachea so trachea cilia expelled more mucus.
Due to excess mucus, breathing becomes difficult and hampered.
Gradually, this infection can affect the whole lungs.
