I'm feeling really worried because I've had a fever for the past two days, and now I'm okay, but I'm having a lot of trouble breathing, and my cough is pretty bad. I was taking zentocol and paracetamol as my doctor suggested, but just a while ago, I started getting really dizzy and my chest is making a Gur Gur sound. Plus, there's this weird stuff coming out when I cough. What should I do next?

I'm a bit worried because my doctor just switched my TB medication from AKT 4 to RCinex 450300 and Mycobutol 1000 without doing any tests. I've only been on the meds since the beginning of March, and he mentioned that TB doesn't spread after 15 days of treatment, so it's okay to resume normal activities. Could you please let me know if this change is safe and if it's really true that TB isnt contagious after just 15 days on meds?

Yes ,TB will not spread at present since 15 days treatment is completed .Continue all the medications.

Is it normal to sometimes have shortness of breath with a common cold? I've had a cold for about 10 days now, and I'm a bit worried because I don't feel like I'm breathing properly. Should I be concerned about this?

I've had a really bad cough for the last couple of days, and there's a wheezing sound when I breathe sometimes. I've been taking Rex cof syrup, but it hasn't helped at all. I did a COVID test, and thankfully, it's negative. I'm just wondering if there's any other medicine or treatment youd recommend for this cough?
