I've been dealing with an allergic bronchial cough for the past 12 years. It tends to get really bad during the winter months, and this time it kicked off around November. I usually dont find much relief with medicines or inhalers, but I tried Ascoril plus syrup recently, and surprisingly, there's been some improvement. I'd say the cough is about 50% better, and I'm hoping it continues to help. I've been taking 10 ml of it, three times a day, for the last three days. Im just a bit worried about how long I can safely continue to use this medicine and what the proper dosage should be. Also, I've noticed some tremors in my hands after starting it. Can you provide guidance on this?

I've been feeling kind of worried since yesterday. I was spray painting my bathroom cabinet for around 5 to 10 minutes, and I didn't use a mask. About 20 minutes later, I started feeling short of breath. Today, I'm still experiencing some shortness of breath, though not as intense as before, and there's a bit of coughing. A friend gave me some cough drops which helped a bit, but I'm concerned if I should just wait it out a few more days or if it's necessary to head to the hospital. What do you think?

Its possible that inhaling the spray paint fumes irritated your airways, causing shortness of breath and coughing. If your symptoms are improving, rest, stay hydrated, and avoid irritants. However, if you feel worsening shortness of breath, chest tightness, or persistent discomfort, its best to visit a hospital for evaluation.

My husband has active Tuberculosis and he's having a really hard time sleeping at night because of his intense coughing. It's gotten to the point where our six-month-old son and I can't sleep either since we all share the same room. I'm really concerned and was wondering if theres a way to help manage his cough so we can all get some rest. What should I do?
