Do you wake up every morning with a scratchy throat and clear your throat constantly? If you dismissed it thinking, 'Oh, it is just because of smoking,' pause for a moment. You might be missing an SOS signal sent by your lungs. Our lungs are crying out silently in pain.

Have you ever woken up in the morning clearing your throat with a cough, feeling more short of breath than usual, or noticing that your voice is not what it used to be? Because it may not feel like a major illness on the surface, you might have brushed it off, thinking it is just the changing seasons or part of getting older. However, these subtle signals may be an SOS sent by an essential organ in our body: the lung.

Some people share concerns like this: βLately I have been coughing constantly for some reason, and sometimes blood even comes up with it, which really frightened me. I brushed it off thinking it was just a cold, but then worried it might be pneumonia and went to the clinic, only to be told it was not. I clearly feel unwell somewhere, but not knowing what is wrong is so frustrating.β A frequent cough and blood-tinged sputum are symptoms too unsettling to dismiss simply as a common cold or bronchitis. Donguibogam offers insight into what might be happening.
