I'm really worried and looking for some advice. It's been 15 days since I started TB medication, but I still have fever, chills, and this persistent dry cough. The meds are supposed to be helping, so I'm confused why these symptoms aren't getting better. Could you please advise on what might be going on or what I should do?

I'm dealing with a wet cough that's been hanging around for about 45 days. I saw a pulmonologist before and was told to take Montek LC, Alerodil syrup, and some antibiotics. I finished all the meds, but the cough is still here, and I hear a whistling sound in my chest. Is there a chance this could be TB or asthma? With the lockdown, I can't see a doctor in person. Which medicine might help ease my symptoms until I can get medical advice?

Patient is advised tab augmentin 625 mg ,orally, thrice daily for 7 days, tab levocetrizine 10 mg bedtime for 5 days and syrup salbutamol 10 ml thrice dailly for 7 days .

I'm often catching colds and having a cough with the changing weather. I've got allergies to dust and asthma runs in the familymy mom and grandma have it too. I'm thinking of sticking to Ayurvedic medicine because I'm worried about the long-term use of allopathic stuff. But this time, I noticed some blood in the phlegm when I blew my nose. Should I be concerned about this, or is it alright to keep using Ayurveda?
