I've been dealing with this stubborn cough for about 6 months now, and I've noticed that I also get these sharp pains in my ribs and chest sometimes, as well as my back. Lately, every time I take a deep breath, I end up coughing and wheezing, which is really concerning me. Plus, Ive been getting headaches and feeling super tired all the time, no matter how much sleep I get. My other bones are starting to feel weak and ache a lot too. Do you think I should see a doctor for these symptoms? What could be causing all of this?

I've been on TB medication for a month now and haven't noticed any side effects like vomiting or jaundice. Is it normal not to experience side effects with TB medications? Last year, when I had extrapulmonary lymph node TB, I experienced a lot of side effects and the treatment lasted over nine months. My pulmonologist confirmed it was cured, but now I've had upper abdomen pain for the last four months. An abdomen USG showed a mass lesion in the retro peritoneal region, and after a CT scan of my thorax and full abdomen, it showed collapsed lungs and abdominal adenopathy. I've started taking RHE FD tablets again, but I'm confused if it's really TB this time since I don't have any symptoms or side effects from the medication. Could it be something else? What do you suggest I do?

your body mght be adopted to those medicines, so you are not having any side efects

I'm really worried because I've had a severe cough for the last five days. I'm taking Micef 200, Dolo 650, Dexona, Monticope, and MagnatussA syrup for it. In the mornings, I really have to cough hard to get any phlegm out, and it comes out red at first, then turns light green. Is that normal or something I should be more concerned about? Also, I'm experiencing a lot of headaches and body pain because of the coughing. What should I do?

as there is no relief get a throat swab done and visit Physician for appropriate management

I've just finished a round of clarithromycin but still have this chesty, wet, persistent cough. I went back and got prescribed azithromycin for 4 days, and it seemed to helpI felt much better. But now, just two days after finishing the meds, the cough is back. Could this be just my lungs clearing stuff out? I'm also feeling really congested in my nose again. What could be going on?

kk it's normal
