I'm really worried about my dad. He's 75 and dealing with diabetes and low blood pressure. Recently, he had some intense chest and back pain, and when he was admitted to the hospital, the doctors told us it was pneumonia with a lung infection. He spent six days in the ICU before moving to the IT ward three days ago. Now, the doctors are saying the infection might be back and they think he needs to go back to the ICU. I'm trying to find a specialist who can give us more insight. What could be causing this infection to return, and how can we make sure he's getting the best care?

Every time I drink any fluids, I end up with this annoying wet cough. I talked to my doctor and they mentioned something about mucosis. I'm really looking for some advice on this. What could be causing this, and is there anything I can do to prevent it? It's starting to get frustrating.

It sounds like you may be experiencing mucus buildup in your throat triggered by fluid intake. This could be related to conditions like acid reflux, allergies, or postnasal drip. Stay hydrated with warm fluids and avoid irritants; if it persists, consider seeing a specialist for further evaluation.
