Question

I got over a mild case of COVID last month and it lasted about 34 days. However, it's been over two weeks since then, and I'm still getting these bouts of dry coughing. It's not all the time, but it's still happening now and then. There's no cold or runny nose with it. Any idea what's going on or what I can do about it?

Question

I'm really worried about my brother who's been covid positive for a week now. He had a fever for the first few days, but now that's gone and he's got this dry cough. We got some tests done and I've got the chest X-ray results, but the doctor can only see us next Sunday and today is Thursday. The report mentions something about inhomogeneous opacities at both mid and lower zones, and it also says there's a bilateral pulmonary inflammatory lesion. Should we be waiting till Sunday to see our doctor or do you think it's better to check with another doctor sooner? Id really appreciate your advice on what this might mean and how to proceed.

Question

I've been using Budamate 400 for my whooping cough for about six days now, but my doctor never mentioned anything about gargling after using it. Lately, I'm experiencing a dry mouth and my throat feels kind of suffocated. Can you help me figure out what might be causing this and what I should do about it?

Question

I'm currently going through treatment for tuberculosis and I'm taking rcinex and pyzina 1750 along with Folfit. I'm wondering if I can switch out Folfit for FDSON MP Forte since they seem to have the same composition. Am I missing something important here?
