I've been getting this slight cough since May and I don't usually cough a lot, but I feel like there's some chest congestion. Could it be that there's thickened mucus there? This seems to happen once a year now for about the past 5 years. Normally, I just take regular cough syrup and it goes away, but this time I haven't taken anything. Should I be worried or do anything different?

View allI'm having this issue where I keep needing to clear my throat, and sometimes in the morning, there's this black stuff in my sputum. A doctor once told me to take Montair FX daily for 20 days. I only took it for six days because I felt better and stopped, but now the problem is back. Should I start taking Montair FX again, and if so, for how long this time?
It's best to follow your doctor's advice and complete the full 20-day course of Montair FX, even if you're feeling better. If you're experiencing the same symptoms again, you can start the medicine again, but it's important to consult your doctor to confirm the duration and ensure proper treatment.

Ive been feeling really suffocated for the past three days, and it's making it really tough to get any work done. My chest feels tight and heavy, and I've also got this nagging upset stomach. Its like Im completely unhappy and cant shake off these negative thoughts. Im wondering, is this a breathing problem or anxiety or something else entirely? I had a chest x-ray done about three months ago, and it didnt show anything, but the problems still here. The doctor mentioned something about allergic rhinitis, and Ive been taking Alerfix Total daily for three months and Oxitin CR Forte, but I missed my Oxitin dose the last two days. Could this be something serious? And how can I get rid of this permanently?
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.Seroflo inhaler sos is advised to the pt for wheezing.
