I've been dealing with a really annoying cold, cough, and itchy throat for about a week now. I've tried home remedies and even saw a doctor, but nothing seems to be working. The cough is so much worse at night than in the morning, and my throat always starts itching right before I cough. I'm currently taking Asthakind DX syrup and Cefpodoxime and Levocetirizine tablets, but it's still not getting better. Can you suggest any other medicine or treatment that might help?

View allI've been dealing with some chest pain and discomfort since I had COVID back in late April. I tested negative by early May, but about 10 days later, I started feeling pain in both my lungs and back. I talked to my doctor about it and they had me take antibiotics, but that didn't really help. Now, the pain is mostly on the left side and stretches up to my neck. I tried painkillers for five days and that gave me a little relief, but the pain comes back once I stop the medicine. I also had an online chat with a pulmonologist in June and they suggested Chymoral Plus for a week, saying not to worry too much. My CT scan severity index was 525 in early May. I'm just wondering what steps I should take now for better results. Could you offer some advice?

I'm really worried about my mom. For the last 67 months, she's been experiencing excessive yawning during the day. We've done all kinds of tests like chest x-ray, ECG, echo, TMT, and even basic blood work, but everything's coming back normal. She often mentions feeling like there's air stuck in her left chest, and yawning seems to give her some relief. Sometimes she even has chest pains. Could you help us figure out what's going on?
Pulmonologist opinion is advised to the patient.

I'm trying to understand my recent x-ray results which mentioned 'right apical PTB of undetermined activity.' I'm a bit concerned because I did a sputum test and it came back negative for TB bacteria. Also, I have no TB symptoms and the last time I had this disease was 14 years ago. Could this be something serious? What should I be looking out for?
The X-ray result indicates a past, likely healed, tuberculosis (TB) infection in your right lung, with "undetermined activity" suggesting no current active infection, which is supported by your negative sputum test and lack of symptoms.
