Question

I'm really concerned about something I saw on my recent X-ray. It seems like there are scars on my lungs, and I'm wondering if there's any syrup or medicine that can help hide or treat those scars. Could you suggest something that might work?

Question

My friend has been dealing with this annoying barking cough for a while now. She's already on cough syrup and doing saltwater gargles, but nothing seems to help. It just keeps coming back and barking every time. Her chest X-ray didnt show anything unusual either. What do you think should be her next move? Any advice would be appreciated.

Question

I'm a bit worried because I did an RTPCR test for COVID and it came back negative, but I'm still having trouble with wheezing in my chest and some coughing for about 45 days now. I don't have a fever or other symptoms, and the breathing difficulty isn't too bad, but the wheezing is definitely there. I have asthma and normally use my Serflo 250 inhaler only around 10-15 times a year. Just recently, about 5 days ago, I had a really bad allergy attack. I'm not sure what to make of all this. What should I do?

I've been dealing with a persistent dry cough for about three months now. There's no cold or fever with it, but the coughing isn't constantjust enough that it's causing some pain in my throat.
