I'm really concerned about my cousin brother who started his treatment for MDR-RR TB about 20 days ago. Despite being on medication, he's still coughing quite a bit. Could you let me know when the coughing might completely stop, and how long we should expect to continue the meds before seeing improvement?

I don't have any cough, haven't been smoking or drinking, and really don't have any bad habits. Can you help me understand what it means? Is this something I should be worried about?

I'm really worried about my mom who's been diagnosed with pneumonia at St. Luke's E.R. The doctor gave her medication for just 15 days, but she's still struggling with a cough that keeps her up all night and it's affecting her sleep. We're really concerned because she's not allowed to leave the house, and we want to find out if theres a different medication or treatment that might help her. Who can we reach out to for more advice? Would appreciate any guidance!
