I'm having this really bothersome dry cough, and it seems to get worse when I'm under a ceiling fan or in an air-conditioned room. I don't notice it as much when the room temperature is normal though. Also, the mucus I cough up is white. Could it be something to do with excess heat in my body? I'm worried and would love any suggestions on what kind of medicines might help with this.

View allI'm really worried about my mom. She's been coughing for a few days now, and nothing seems to be helping. We've tried both grillinctus and coffdryl, and even a ginger molasses mix, but her cough isn't getting any better. Do you have any advice or recommendations on what might help her get some relief?
Glans Exposure and Skin Retraction Issue _Normal Variations_ 1. _Temporary exposure_: Glans exposure can occur temporarily due to sexual activity, especially if you have a foreskin that's naturally tighter. 2. _Skin retraction_: Skin retraction can take some time, especially if you're not used to frequent erections or sexual activity. _Causes for Concern_ 1. _Prolonged exposure_: If the glans remains exposed for an extended period (>24 hours). 2. _Discomfort or pain_: If you experience persistent discomfort, pain, or difficulty retracting the skin. 3. _Infection signs_: If you notice redness, swelling, increased sensitivity, or discharge. _Self-Care Measures_ 1. _Apply a topical cream_: Use a fragrance-free, non-comedogenic cream or ointment to reduce friction and discomfort. 2. _Wear loose, breathable clothing_: Avoid tight clothing that can irritate the area. 3. _Maintain good hygiene_: Gently clean the area with mild soap and lukewarm water. 4. _Avoid further irritation_: Refrain from engaging in activities that may exacerbate the issue.

I've been dealing with a dry cough for about four months now since having COVID. I've already had a chest X-ray and a CT scan, and both showed everything is normal. I'm a bit worried because the cough just won't go away. Could you recommend a good medicine or treatment to help with this?
