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?

My dad has been struggling with breathing and coughing a lot lately. We just got his test results, and it says there are prominent bronchovascular markings in his bilateral lung fields. I'm worried and not sure what this means. Could this explain why he's having these symptoms? What steps should we take next?
