I'm currently dealing with a heavy cough and cold, despite taking mox 250 capsule and levosiz 5mg tablet. These have helped me breathe easier, but I'm still feeling a sore throat, and it feels like the cough is stuck in my chest but comes out when I cough. Can you suggest a more permanent solution to fully recover from this?

I'm having some trouble when I talk, like I can't catch my breath, and my chest feels really stiff. It's making me feel weak and drained, and honestly, I just don't feel like talking because of it. What's going on? Is this something I should be worried about?

Patient is advised x-ray chest and sputum for AFB and microscopy.

I'm a bit worried about my CT scan results. It showed a soft tissue attenuation lesion and several lung nodules, with the largest being 9mm. I had a bronchoscopy and the biopsy results came back normal. Should I still consider getting a PET scan, or is it alright to just let it be? I'm not sure how to proceed and would really appreciate your insight.

I'm really worried about my dad. Even though he tested negative for COVID three weeks after testing positive, he's not feeling better. He's having a lot of trouble breathing, can't get enough oxygen, has a fever, and has chest pain. Could this still be related to COVID, and what can we do to help him?
