I've been dealing with a dry cough for the last three days and I've already tried Asthakind syrup twice a day for two days, but it hasn't helped at all. What else can I do or try to get some relief? Could there be something else going on that I should be worried about?

I'm really worried about my dad. I've attached his recent chest CT scan, and I'm hoping you can help explain what's going on. He was diagnosed with COPD last year, and I'm not sure how this scan relates to that. What should I be looking out for?

I've had this persistent cough for a few weeks now and my GP sent me for a chest x-ray. It's been over two weeks since the x-ray on Tuesday, but I haven't heard any results yet. I'm really anxious and wondering if this delay is normal. Should I be worried about this?
