I'm really worried about post-COVID lung fibrosis. Is it something that can actually get better over time? I've read online that people with lung fibrosis might only live for 3 to 5 years. What are the symptoms I should be looking out for? I'm feeling pretty anxious and could really use some guidance.

View allI've been dealing with a dry cough for the past couple of weeks and it's really starting to worry me. Initially, I had a viral fever about three weeks ago and took some medication which seemed to work, but this cough just won't go away. I tried using Tasq DX syrup for a week but it didn't help, so I switched to Green linctus BM syrup for another week and it hasn't gotten better in fact, it seems to be getting worse. Could you please help me figure out what's going on and what I should do next?

I'm really worried about my Bronco pneumonia. I've had it since I was a kid, and I've heard different things from different doctors. Some say it's due to allergies and might get better with time, while others feel the weather where I live isnt right for me. I even moved to see if that would help, but I'm still having asthma problems. Anytime I get a little cold, the coughing starts and my asthma flares up. I've been using Asthalin to manage it. Do I have to live with this for the rest of my life? Is there anything else I could try or look into?
if you have symptoms,yes you should take
