I've been dealing with a cough for about two months now, and it hasn't gone away. I got an X-ray done, and everything looked fine, and my CBC results came back normal too. But this cough just won't go away. What could be causing it and what should I do next?

I've been on ATT for pulmonary Kochs diagnosed 3 months ago. My initial chest X-ray looked fine, but the CT scan showed the infection. The Montox test was positive with a 20mm induration. For my latest review, I had a chest X-ray, and it showed prominent bronchovascular markings. Can you tell me what this means? Also, I've been experiencing leg pain, especially in my knees and ankles. Is this something I should be worried about?

Do not panic it takes time complete the entire course of ATT and visit your Physician regularly for followup,consume balanced diet and stay hydrated.

I'm having a hard time with shortness of breath and keep getting these little burps that just won't stop, and it's like this for about 10 days every month. I'm really concerned and not sure what's going on. Could this be linked to my smoking habit or maybe something to do with Thoraco Lumbar Kypho Scoliosis I've heard about? Any advice or insight would be great.

yes it is related to smoking. It might be due to gastritis
