I've been dealing with a dry cough lately, and in the mornings, I'm coughing up white sputum. I got tested for COVID, and it's negative. I've also had bronchitis for the past couple of years. Right now, I'm using steam inhalation and the Budecort inhaler. Could you please suggest any other medicines or treatments that might help?

View allI'm dealing with a cough that's been lingering for about four days now, and I've been taking azithromycin and asthakind cough syrup. It's been pretty bothersome and sometimes even gives me a headache. Just wondering if there's something else I should try or be worried about? Any suggestions would really help.
Considering you've already taken azithromycin (an antibiotic) and Asthakind cough syrup, here are some next steps: *Next Steps* 1. *Consult your doctor*: Schedule a follow-up appointment to reassess your condition. 2. *Cough syrup adjustment*: Ask your doctor if you can switch to a different cough syrup or adjust the dosage. 3. *Pain relief*: For headaches, you can try over-the-counter pain relievers like paracetamol (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil). 4. *Stay hydrated*: Drink plenty of fluids to help thin out mucus and soothe your throat. 5. *Rest*: Get plenty of rest to help your body recover. *When to Seek Immediate Medical Attention* 1. *Difficulty breathing*: If you experience shortness of breath or difficulty breathing. 2. *Chest pain*: If you have severe chest pain or pressure. 3. *Fever*: If your fever exceeds 102F (39C) or lasts for an extended period. 4. *Severe headache*: If your headache is severe, persistent, or accompanied by confusion, disorientation, or stiff neck.

I've been dealing with COVID for about a month now, and thankfully, it was mostly asymptomatic at the start. Lately though, I've been feeling this chest tightness or burning sensation, mainly in the evenings. Is this a normal thing to experience after having COVID, and what should I be doing about it?
That could be Gastritis,no need to worry avoid spicy foods visit Gastroenterologist for appropriate treatment.
