Question

I've been having this dry cough and my throat is super itchy. It's way worse at night, but during the day it's not so bad. Any idea what's going on or how I can make it stop?

Question

I'm really worried because ever since I had a viral infection, I've been dealing with this persistent cough and wheezing that just won't go away. It even flares up when I'm talking sometimes. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned about it being something more serious?

Question

I'm a 53-year-old male and have been dealing with allergic asthma for quite some time now. I've been relying on Montac LC, which works well for me, but it's become quite expensive, nearly twice the price over the past year. Plus, nasal sprays and inhalers don't seem to help much, especially with the constant skin itching and sneezing. Is there an alternative tablet or medicine you could suggest?

Question

I'm a bit concerned after receiving my X-ray results, which mention something about bronchovascular bronchitis. Could you explain what that means? Also, what precautions should I be taking?
