I'm coughing a lot and my chest feels like it's aching when I do. Should I be worried about this? Is it something serious, or maybe just a normal cold? What do you think could be causing this, and is there anything I should be doing to feel better?

So, this morning I noticed I had thick yellow sputum with some blood in it, but it only happened once and I haven't had any other symptoms. I'm kinda worried about what might be going on. Is this something serious, or could it just be a random thing? What should I be doing or watching out for?

Patient is advised tab augmentin 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 .

I'm worried about my right cp lungs being blunted. I've had a cough for the last 30 days. Can you recommend a good medication for this?

A blunted right CP lung could indicate some underlying condition, like pleural effusion or lung inflammation. Given your persistent cough for 30 days, it's important to consult a doctor for a thorough evaluation. Medications like antibiotics or inhalers may be prescribed based on the diagnosis, but a proper assessment is needed to determine the right treatment.
