I'm really struggling with this persistent wet cough and the pain it's causing in my chest. Every time the seasons change, it's the same routine: blocked nose, runny nose, and that horrible itch in my throat that makes me want to cough all the time. I got my X-ray and PFT done, but everything came back normal, which is frustrating because my throat just constantly feels heavy, like it's never clear. I really wish I could solve this for good. Unfortunately, there's no chest specialist in my area. Could you please give me some advice on what I can do?

View allI've been dealing with this persistent cough for over a month now, ever since I recovered from COVID. It's really tough because it keeps getting worse at night. Last year around the same time, I had a similar issue where I coughed for more than two months. When I got an X-ray, the doctor said it was allergic bronchitis. The meds didn't help back then, but homeopathic treatments from Ayush did the trick. I'm really at a loss now though. Do you think I should get some tests done to figure out what's going on, or could you suggest any medicines that might help?
start tablet mucinac for 5 days twice a day

I'm really worried about my father. He tested positive for Covid yesterday, and his CT value is 16. He's had a fever for about eight days now with a temperature between 100 to 101. He's also diabetic and although he's been on diabetes medication for years, we're stressed because the fever hasn't eased up yet. He completed both doses of the Covid vaccine a few months back. His current oxygen levels are around 98-99, and his heart rate is between 71-80. He's got a cough and cold too. We started him on Covid meds and are keeping him in home quarantine, but I'm unsure if we should get a Lungs CT Scan done given his diabetes and the persisting fever. What do you suggest?
Yes,patient is advised a CT scan for further management.

I'm a bit confused about my CT score. During my COVID infection, my CT score was 425, and now, post-COVID, it's 725. The doctor mentioned it's normal but I'm not sure what this means. I finished home quarantine 45 days ago and tested negative twice. Should I be concerned about the CT score of 7, or is there anything specific I need to do?
lead normal life , nothing to worry
