I'm having a bit of a dilemma. I was prescribed Montax FX and Pulmoclear for ten days, and they seemed to work great at first. But now that I've finished the course, the same symptoms have returned. I'm really worried. What do you think could be going on? Should I be doing something different or trying another medication? I'm feeling a bit lost and would appreciate some advice.

It seems that the symptoms returned after completing the prescribed course of Montax-FX and Pulmoclear. This could indicate that the underlying issue wasn't fully addressed or there may be an underlying condition that requires further evaluation. I would recommend revisiting the doctor for a follow-up to reassess the situation and adjust the treatment plan accordingly.

View allI've been dealing with bronchitis and it's really getting to me. Every time I see a doctor, it seems to help a little but then in just a week, I'm back to having a cough and feeling breathless again. It's really taking a toll on me. What could be causing these recurring symptoms? Is there something else I should be doing or asking my doctor about?

I'm dealing with asthma, but for the past 45 months, I've been feeling breathless constantly. There's a lot of yawning and burping happening too. I had an X-ray, which showed everything's fine. I've tried nebulization and other treatments my doctor recommended, but nothing seems to work. Could you offer some advice on what might be happening?
continue the same until symptoms exacerbated, if symptoms exacerbated take inhaler

I'm really worried and need some advice. For the past three months, I've been waking up every morning with brown phlegm, but the rest of the day it's clear. It's coming from my throat, and I dont have a cough. I don't smoke, and I live in a calm area with low pollution and a humid climate. It's really freaking me out, and I can't shake the feeling that something might be seriously wrong. Should I be worried? Are there any home remedies that might help?
Spitting brown phlegm in the morning can be alarming, but it's often treatable. Given your symptoms and environment, here are possible causes: *Possible Causes* 1. *Postnasal drip*: Mucus from your nose can drip down the back of your throat, causing brown phlegm. 2. *Acid reflux*: Stomach acid can flow up into your throat, causing inflammation and brown phlegm. 3. *Allergies*: Seasonal or environmental allergies can trigger excess mucus production. 4. *Sinusitis*: Inflammation of the sinuses can cause thick, discolored mucus. *Home Remedies* 1. *Stay hydrated*: Drink plenty of water to thin out mucus. 2. *Saline gargle*: Mix 14 teaspoon of salt with 8 ounces of warm water and gargle several times a day. 3. *Honey and lemon*: Mix equal parts honey and lemon juice in warm water to soothe your throat. 4. *Elevate your head*: Sleep with your head slightly elevated to reduce postnasal drip. *Medical Consultation* If your symptoms persist or worsen, consult an *ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) specialist* or a *primary care physician*. They may recommend: 1. *Nasal endoscopy*: To examine your nasal passages and sinuses. 2. *Throat swab*: To check for infections. 3. *Acid reflux testing*: To diagnose acid reflux. 4. *Allergy testing*: To identify potential allergens.
