I'm really concerned about my dad's cough. He's had it for about six months now, and it's mostly when he's lying down, but there's no fever. Besides that, he's dealing with high blood pressure, diabetes, and some heart issues. He's been on c furo cv 625 antibiotics for a couple of days, which seems to help a bit, maybe 40 percent better. But what else can we do? Any advice or other medicines you think would help?

I've been having trouble breathing and I'm worried it might be because of tar clotting in my lungs. Is there any way to get rid of that tar buildup?

Tar buildup in the lungs, often due to smoking, can cause breathing difficulties. While it can't be fully "removed" like foreign objects, quitting smoking and adopting healthy habits like deep breathing exercises, a nutritious diet, and sometimes medications can help improve lung function and reduce further damage. Consulting a pulmonologist is crucial for tailored treatment.
