That is because lungs have a very large space and also has the bronchi (which makes mucous). that is why when u breath and dust goes in you cough. This tries to throw the mucous up the throat and out the body. That is why sometimes when you are sick and u cough, you fill some kind of strain or burning inside your chest.
