I'm 28 and tested positive for Covid about 13 days ago. Since the 8th day, I'm finding it really hard to deal with this chest and throat issue. It's like mucus is stuck, and it won't come out or go down. Sleeping at night is a huge problemevery time I try to fall asleep, I feel this prick in my throat that comes with a lot of coughing, but the mucus just won't clear. My chest hurts and I have headaches from all this, trying to get the mucus out. I'm taking air fast tabs, tripofed syrup, ac long tabs, and I've even tried all kinds of home remedies but nothing's helping. It's driving me crazy, to the point I'm having really bad thoughts because of how uncomfortable this is. I've seen a lot of doctors, but no one's been able to give me the right treatment. Can you help me figure out what's going on and what I can do to feel better?

View allI'm really worried about my wife. She's 35 and has been dealing with this heavy dry cough for over two weeks now. It's like she's coughing 247, and it's been tough on her. We went to see an MD and he said she might be dealing with asthma and an allergic cough. The doctor gave her some meds: Cefakind CV 500 twice a day, Doxomax XP twice a day, Grilinctus BM syrup three times a day, and she's also using a nebulizer twice daily. Her blood and urine tests came back normal but shes still not feeling any better. Could you help us understand what might be the best treatment for this kind of heavy allergic dry cough? We're feeling pretty stuck and don't know what to do next.

I've been spitting a little bit of fresh blood from my throat at night, and I'm really worried. I'm currently on medication for COPD and my X-ray shows smoky lungs, but I've never smoked or drank alcohol. I'm not experiencing weight loss or fever, and I'm taking antibiotics and cough syrup, but I'm unsure about what's happening. The blood I spit is bright red and clears up within minutes, usually after 10 p.m. My doctor did an X-ray and some basic blood tests, but I'm concerned if this could be something serious or life-threatening. What could be going on?
so did your chest xray and bloood investigations reports are normal .there are many reason for spiting fresh blood most common cause is chest infections so after evaluating you properly we can come to a diagnosis

I've been in the hospital for pneumonia and all my blood tests came back normal except for the ESR, which is a bit high. I saw my sputum test results on the doctor's phone, and it mentioned something about Haemophilus influenzae, which I looked up and found it's a type of bacteria causing pneumonia. They've got me on Taximax 1500, Pulmoclear, Zipod CV 200, Linowin, and some Mucolytic syrup called Ambrolite. I used to have a low-grade fever thats been gone for about 34 days now, but Im still dealing with this dry cough that just wont quit and gets worse a lot. Its been six days since treatment started, and Im still in the hospital. How much longer do you think it'll take for me to recover with the treatment Im on currently?
Yes,continue same treatment as advised by the physician.Patient is advised tab levocetrizine 10 mg orally,at bedtime for 5 days .
