I'm noticing some chest congestion that's been going on for about a week now. It's making it hard to breathe at times, and I've got a bit of a cough. Plus, I hear these heavy sounds when I breathe. Could this possibly be asthma or something else? I really need some advice on what might be happening.

I'm really having trouble with deep breathing and I've been coughing up brown mucus pretty often. How normal is this supposed to be? It's been over a month on medication but I'm not seeing much improvement. How long does something like this usually take to get better?

I've been diagnosed with TB, but my report said something about pulmonary kost. They found pleural fluid in my lungs and did tapping to drain it. Now, I'm experiencing some aches from the scarring. I'm trying to understand what the exact name of my disease is. Is it tuberculosis? What type is it? Or is it something completely different like pneumonia? How are these terms connected? Also, what's the root cause of this issue Im having? Can I have cold food now or after I finish my medication? I'm curious about ways to prevent this from happening again in the future. I had this disease over a year ago and was on medication for about six months. After that, I was mostly okay, just some aches here and there, which the doctor said is normal. Then, a month later, I got diagnosed again with the fluid in my lungs. Why did it come back? Is it dangerous?
Pulmonologist opinion is advised to the patient.
