I'm really concerned about my friend who's getting treated for TB. I'm trying to figure out the right diet for him. Can you advise on which fruits and vegetables would be best for someone in his condition? Also, is it safe for him to eat food with spices? I would really appreciate your guidance on this.

I'm not sure if the phlegm is coming from my throat or lungs, but I've been dealing with thick, little grey phlegm every day. I don't smoke and the air quality is good where I live. My chest CT and PFT came back normal, but I'm still experiencing daily desaturation. Could there be something else I should look into?

Tab Azithromycin 500mg,orally for 3 days is advised to the patient.
