  5. I'm a bit worried as I recently got a PFT report back, and it mentioned something about Small Airway Obstruction. I've also been dealing with this chronic cough for a while now. Should I be concerned about this? Are there any other tests I should consider doing to get a clearer picture of what's going on?
