Question

I've been coughing up a little bit of blood in the mornings for the last few weeks and also noticed some blood in my left nostril. I got a chest x-ray and PNS x-ray done, and they came back normal. My CBC and ESR are also normal. Should I be worried about this, or could it be something minor? What should I do next?

Question

I'm hearing a whistling sound when I breathe out, especially in the mornings. Coughing happens too, but it's pretty rare. I've been taking monticope and using an aerocort inhaler for relief when the issues kick in. Can you help me understand why this is happening and if there's anything else I should be doing about it?

Question

I'm feeling a bit concerned because I've been having this stubborn dry cough and chest pain that just won't go away. It's been sticking around since I caught a cold about four weeks ago. Sometimes it's not too bad, but other times it gets really severe. I saw an ENT who gave me some antibiotics and syrup to try for five days, but there's been no change. The doctor mentioned something about needing a blood test if things dont get better after this. What could be causing this? Should I be worried about needing further tests, or is this just a common thing after a cold?
