I've been dealing with a cough that started a couple of months ago after I had a cold. I went to the clinic and got some medicine, but the cough stayed, and theres been this weird sound coming from my chest. I visited the doctor again about two weeks ago, and he mentioned it was an infection and gave me syrup and some pills, but it hasn't cleared up. After eating meals, I notice white mucus fills my chest, and I have to cough it up right after eating. Plus, when I play football for about an hour, the cough kicks in, and I start feeling really fatigued. What's going on here, and how can I get back to feeling healthy again?

I've been dealing with a cough that I had a couple of months ago, and while it seems to be gone now, I'm still having trouble with persistent mucus. Recently, I've started feeling some chest tightness and alternating mild to moderate pain. Just a few days ago, my throat was also bothering me. I'm really concerned about what's causing all these symptoms, especially during this lockdown. Any advice on what I should do?

My wife is six months pregnant and she's been struggling with a persistent cough and cold since her first month. We've been seeing her gynecologist regularly and they've given us some medicine, but it only offers temporary relief. Recently, the gynecologist advised us to consult a pulmonologist. I'm just concerned and wondering if it's safe for her to take allergy medication at this stage of her pregnancy. Any recommendations on what kind of treatment the pulmonologist might suggest?
