I've been dealing with a persistent cough for almost three months now. Whenever I take Deriphyllin 150mg and Cetrizine, it seems to help for about 20 hours, but then the cough comes back at night. What do you think I should do?

It sounds like your cough may be persistent, possibly due to an underlying issue like allergies or respiratory inflammation. I recommend consulting your doctor for further evaluation and possibly adjusting your treatment plan, as the relief youre experiencing may be temporary.

I've been having this issue where I'm coughing up green and yellow phlegm for the past four days. It used to be white but then turned to green and yellow. My nose feels really congested, but I don't have a fever, fatigue, or any lethargy. I went through a CECT scan of my thorax earlier and everything came back normal, no abnormalities. Usually, this starts in the early morning and lasts through the night, but it doesn't disturb my sleep. Should I be worried, or is there something specific going on that I should get checked out?

I've been feeling this pain on the right side of my chest whenever I take a deep breath or sneeze. It's been going on for about two months, and sometimes it feels mild, but other times it's sharp. Plus, it hurts more when I do anything physical. The pain even goes up to my right shoulder and back. I don't have a cough or sore throat or anything like that, just this weird pain. What do you think it could be?

Hey, my father-in-law, who's 63, was admitted on an oxygen bed on May 1st with a saturation level of 88. He tested positive for Covid19 and he's been getting treated in the hospital. Yesterday, his oxygen was at 15 liters, and his saturation was about 95, but today it's dropped back to 88 without oxygen support. The hospital suggested he might be discharged in 2 days since he's been physically good and active. So I'm really wondering, should we be worried about this drop in saturation? Is it something unusual or potentially dangerous? And is it safe for him to be discharged after just 2 days? I'm trying to understand if an oxygen level of 88 is bad or if it's something normal with recovering patients?
