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.

I'm really worried because my dad has a chest CT scan score of 525 and he's been diagnosed with COVID. Does this mean he's in a lot of danger? Should we get him admitted to the hospital right away? It's really concerning.

Physician opinion is advised to the patient.

Hey, I'm really worried about my dad. He's been dealing with type 2 diabetes for a while now and recently, about 3 months back, he got diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis. He didn't tell anyone in our family because he thought it was just a regular cough and cold. But when things didn't get better, we had him tested, and it turned out to be TB. The chest X-ray and CT scan show a significant infection in both his lungs, with consolidation and cavitation, but thankfully no pleural or pericardial effusion. Now he's also got pneumonia because of all this. He's been on DOTS treatment for the last 10 days, but he's still coughing up phlegm. I'm anxious to know when we might start seeing some improvement in his condition. Could you shed some light on this?

it atleast will take 2-3 months to improve his condition, but you should continue DOTS for 6 months

I've been dealing with a persistent cough for what feels like ages, like over a thousand years, and it's been seriously frustrating. I've visited countless doctors, but none of the treatments seem to work for me. I'm constantly dealing with a dry cough and a sore throat, and it just keeps cycling back. Its leaving me feeling really stuck and I'm not sure what to do anymore. Got any ideas on what could help?

do salt gargling , take tablet amoxyclav for 5 days twice a day
