I'm feeling really worried because my family member has been having a bad cough and chest congestion for a few days now. He's also struggling to get any sleep at night and it seems to get worse when he's talking. We went to a doctor and while his blood pressure is fine and the X-ray showed everything is normal, the doctor prescribed some tablets and a syrup, including Ecozet MTA and Amoxicillin, and also recommended using Neb Duolin for a week. We've been following the prescription, but the cough is still not going away. What should our next steps be? Should we be concerned or try something different?

I'm really worried about my health situation. I've had childhood asthma and sinusitis, and the usual things like dust and cold triggers really affect me. Usually, it wasn't a big deal, but since I hit 31, especially during the pandemic, the shortness of breath has gotten worse. I was using SEROFLO 250 now and then, but it never seemed serious until I got COVID-19 in early 2022. My breathing issues got really bad, so I used SEROFLO more often and for consecutive days. Now Im facing something scaryevery time I use SEROFLO, I get severe dizziness, heart palpitations, sleep problems, increased shortness of breath, and theres pain in my left arm. Im super anxious if these are signs of a heart issue. Do you think the SEROFLO is causing these symptoms or could this be something else like a heart problem? What should I do?
do chest xray

My dad is 64 and has had a fever and cough for the past four days. We saw a doctor who suggested a COVID test, but it came back negative. We met with the doctor again and were told to do more tests. Today, we got the reports, and his CRP level is at 32 mglitre, and the X-ray shows a mild haziness in the lower left zone of his chest. I'm really concerned and wondering what could be causing these symptoms?
