I'm really worried about my cough and pneumonia because I've had a fever for the last week. My Vidal test is on the borderline and my chest infection seems like it's getting worse every day. I also have my X-ray reports with me. Could you please provide some advice on what I should do next?

I've been noticing that every time I drink hot tea, I end up coughing a lot. It's been happening for quite a while now. Also, my wife was recently diagnosed with a TB gold infection that's positive. I'm pretty worried and wondering what could possibly be going on here. Could this all be related somehow? What should we do?

Kindly, go for TB screening

My dad's been diagnosed with something called ILD, and I'm really worried about him. We first took him to a military hospital where they put him on steroids, but they didn't help, and his cough just kept going. Two months back, we visited Jolly Grant in Dehradun, and they prescribed him Musiac 600 BT, but its still not making a difference. He's never smoked or drank, and his liver function tests are normal. But this cough just won't go away. What else can we try?
