I'm a bit worried after my COVID recovery because my CT scan shows patchy fibrosis. Can you tell me if this is something serious? I've included the scan report for you to see.

View allI've been having this coughing issue for a few months now, and I noticed that whenever I take Montair LC, the cough stops but only for two days. Then it comes back, and I find myself needing to take the medicine again for some temporary relief. I'm getting a bit concerned and wondering why this is happening. Is it normal for the relief to be so short-lived, or should I be thinking about seeing a doctor for a more permanent solution?
That could be due to allergy consume warm foods and identify the triggering factor and avoid it

I'm really anxious because I've had breathing issues, a cough, and a sore throat for 90 days now. I got tested for Covid three times, and all came back negative, which just adds to my worries. It started suddenly on March 18, and it's not getting any better. Even after testing negative in May, I'm still struggling with breathing problems. This is making me really scared. Can you recommend any medications or advice on what I should do?
take amoxclav for 5 days and tab pantop 40mg for 3days

I've been having some chest pain recently, like a sharp sting right in the center and to the sides. Finished my TB treatment about a year ago, and it's been 9 months since that. Did some tests like sputum, CBNAT, and X-rays; all came back clear. But for the past couple of months, I've had this mucus issue. No coughing really, but if I try to irritate it, some white mucus comes out. Do you think it's possible for TB to be coming back, or could it be something else?
its better you test for tuberculosis sputum test once again
