I'm really worried because I've had this dry cough for over three months now, and it's just not getting any better. I've tried antihistamines a few times, but they didn't seem to help at all. Every time I cough, it makes this loud noise that feels like it's coming from deep inside me. It's so disruptive, and it's really affecting my sleep. Do you have any idea what could be causing this or what I should do next?

My mom is 66, 45 inches tall and weighs 52 kg. She has COPD and severe sleep apnea but has been using CPAP for 2 months now. Also has thyroid issues, BP and anxiety. Found multiple 8mm gallstones with very mild occasional pain but no vomiting, fever and good appetite. Is she okay to go ahead with surgery next month or should we wait?

This condition may require clinical evaluation to determine the exact cause and treatment. Some cases can be managed conservatively, while others may need surgical intervention depending on size, symptoms, and severity. Regular follow-up is important to monitor progress.

I have a concern regarding the febrex plus tablet. I've noticed that every time I take it, I end up with a lot of coughing, but it doesn't seem to bring up any mucus. I'm a bit puzzled about why this is happening. Could you give me some insights or guidance on this situation?

Febrex Plus contains a combination of ingredients that can help relieve cold and flu symptoms, but one of its components, like the decongestant or antihistamine, may sometimes cause dryness in the airways. This can lead to a dry cough, as the body attempts to clear irritants without producing mucus. If this continues, it may be worth discussing with your doctor to adjust the medication.
