I'm dealing with a really stubborn dry cough that's been going on for over a month now. I've already tried taking Azee and Levoday antibiotics and used Ascoryl and Benadryl dry cough syrups, but nothing seems to be working. Any idea what else I could try or what might be going on?

-It sounds frustrating that your dry cough is lingering despite treatment. Since the antibiotics and cough syrups haven't helped, I recommend seeing a doctor again to rule out other causes, such as asthma, acid reflux, or post-nasal drip. A thorough check

View allI've been dealing with pleural tuberculosis and have just finished my first two months of treatment. The fluid buildup started clearing up once I began treatment, but I'm still experiencing a mild fever in the evenings, around 99.3, that lasts until I go to bed. I'm kind of worried and really want to know when this fever might finally disappear, especially since I'm having trouble reaching my doctor with everything shut down. Any advice on what might be going on or what I should do next?
fever will be relieved almost after 2 months, take tablet dolo 650mg

My 62-year-old mom has been dealing with pleural fluid buildup in her left lung for about 8 months now. We've done all sorts of tests, like bronchoscopy, pleural biopsy, ANA blot test, and checked for CEA and CA125 levels, and thankfully, both tuberculosis and malignancy have been ruled out. But now, the doctor has suggested Thoracoscopy. Can you explain what that is? Is it safe, and what should we expect from this procedure? She's a bit worried, and so am I. Any advice on how we should prepare or any questions we should ask her doctor about this?
kindly proceed with thoracoscopy to find the cause and go for the treatment
