View allI'm really worried because I've been experiencing some unusual symptoms lately. I have a history of allergic asthma, and I've noticed that when I inhale strong perfumes, it triggers a cold and a dry cough. I work outdoors a lot and have been using hand sanitizer frequently. For about a month now, I've noticed bloody mucus in my throat, which I end up swallowing, and it leaves a metallic taste. When I took a rapid corona test, it came out negative, although when they took the nasal swab, there was some blood on the stick. I don't have any other symptoms, but when I don't sleep well, I have a mild dry cough. I even tried antibiotics, but nothing seems to help. Could this be related to inhaling the sanitizer while rubbing it on my hands? What should I do about it? What remedies or steps should I take?
Seroflo rotahaler sos for breathing difficulty is advised to the patient.

I'm just wondering if the Budamate 200 mcg inhaler could be harmful because I know it's a steroid. Is it as risky as other steroids? I'm also concerned about whether using it could lead to something like black fungus. I used it for about five days when I was recovering from COVID. Can you help me understand the possible side effects?

I'm really concerned because I recovered from COVID about a month and a half ago, but I've had this persistent cough for the last two months. There's no mucus, flu, or cold symptoms accompanying it. Should I be worried about this lingering cough, and is there something I can do about it?
