I've been dealing with some troubling symptoms and could really use some advice. Earlier this year, I had issues with waking up in the morning and coughing up blood. It was mostly when I got up and would spit, but the rest of the day seemed fine. I also noticed palpitations, chest pain, and shortness of breath, which would often go away with burping. After getting some advice from my doctor and having some tests done, which all came back normal, that bloody sputum stopped after about a month and a half. However, over the past few days, those symptoms have returned, along with a lot of burping. This morning, I once again coughed up blood and now have a slight sore throat. Any insight you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

I've been dealing with a cough that started a couple of months ago after I had a cold. I went to the clinic and got some medicine, but the cough stayed, and theres been this weird sound coming from my chest. I visited the doctor again about two weeks ago, and he mentioned it was an infection and gave me syrup and some pills, but it hasn't cleared up. After eating meals, I notice white mucus fills my chest, and I have to cough it up right after eating. Plus, when I play football for about an hour, the cough kicks in, and I start feeling really fatigued. What's going on here, and how can I get back to feeling healthy again?
Probable diagnosis is upper respiratory tract infection.Patient is advised tab augmentin 625mg orally,thrice dailly for 5 days,tab levocetrizine 10 mg for 5 days and syrup salbutoml 10 ml thrice dailly for 5 days.
