I'm dealing with a cough problem for the past 15 days. I think it started because I've been sleeping in front of a cooler, and now it feels like the cough is stuck in my throat and chest. I've tried drinking turmeric milk, eating chana, having Honitus, and even using ginger and honey, but nothing seems to be helping. The cough just isn't coming out, and now my throat is really starting to hurt. What should I do?

I've been experiencing shortness of breath lately. I went to see a doctor, and they did a chest X-ray which came back clear, and the doctor also did a PFT, mentioning it wasn't too bad. But I still feel like I can't catch my breath, and it's really worrying me. I'm wondering if this could all just be in my head or if there's something else going on. What do you think?

Seroflo rotahaler sos for breathing difficulty is advised to the patient.

Im really worried about my dad. He was just diagnosed with ILD Fibrotic NSIP and he's been dealing with a dry cough for two years and shortness of breath for the past six months. He's been prescribed Perfinex 200, Iverped, and Atarax. His oximeter shows oxygen levels between 96-98%. Could you give me an idea of what his life expectancy might be with this condition? Is there a chance that his symptoms wont get worse?

How long is it safe to keep a pulse oximeter on my finger? I've noticed that when I leave it on for a while, the readings sometimes start to drop. Is this something to be concerned about?
