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?

I've had a minimal PTB condition about 20 years ago and completed all the meds back then, but my latest X-ray just came back saying there's minimal PTB in the left upper lobe with undetermined activity. Should I be concerned about this result? What does 'undetermined activity' mean and could the PTB have come back, or could it be something else? I'm really worried and would appreciate your advice on what steps I should take next.

I've been having a cold and cough for the last ten days, and it's typical for me to have a cough for about two weeks. But this time, something unusual happened. In the mornings, when I cough and spit, there's a little blood mixed with the mucus or sputum. It started happening in the last two days, and it's freaking me out a bit. This morning, I even coughed on purpose to see if it would happen again, and it did. I don't smoke, so I'm not sure why this is happening. Can you tell me what this might be and what I should do?

Patient is advised tab augmentin duo 625 mg ,orally, thrice daily for 7 days, tab levocetrizine 10 mg bedtime for 5 days and syrup salbutamol 10 ml thrice dailly for 7 days .
