I've been dealing with this persistent cough for several days now, and it just doesn't seem to be improving. I've tried using bisolvon cough forte, but it hasn't really helped. What else can I do to get some relief? Should I be worried about this?

Try doing salt water gargling twice daily and drink only warm water. If there is no relief then please consult a doctor who can examine you and advise accordingly.

I've been having trouble breathing for the last few months, and the mucus is really thick and white. After I eat, it gets a bit worse, almost like my chest feels heavy. I've already done a chest X-ray and a complete blood test, and everything came out normal. With the whole COVID situation, I can't really go to a hospital right now. Do you have any idea what might be going on or what I should do next?

Patient is advised tab augmentin 625 mg ,orally, thrice daily for 7 days, tab levocetrizine 10 mg bedtime for 5 days and syrup salbutamol 10 ml thrice dailly for 7 days .
