I'm a 39-year-old homemaker, and I've been feeling really congested in my chest lately. It feels heavy, and I'm also dealing with a dry cough. My weight is about 58 kg. What kind of treatment or medicine would you suggest for these symptoms? I'm starting to get a bit worried, and I just want to feel better.
