I'm dealing with a dull pain in my chest that's been going on for about a week now. Just today, I started sneezing and have some thick, colorless mucus. I am a regular smoker, so I'm really wondering what's happening with my body right now. What should be my next move?

View allI'm dealing with TB and have been taking DOTS medicines. I've still got a cough and sometimes find it hard to breathe. The cough seems to get worse whenever I catch a cold. I'm using the government-provided meds, and I noticed a slight improvement, but I'm wondering when the coughing will completely go away. Will it get better once the infection stops? I'm hoping to breathe more easily and be free of this cough. What should I do to help with this situation?
To alleviate your TB symptoms, continue taking your DOTS medicines as prescribed, attend regular follow-up appointments, stay hydrated, get plenty of rest, avoid close contact with others to prevent transmission, and consider wearing a mask to reduce the risk of infection; with adherence to treatment, your cough and breathing difficulties should gradually subside, and you can expect significant improvement within 2-3 months.
