I've been having this dry cough issue but it's weird because it only kicks in at night when I'm sleeping deeply. Do you have any syrup suggestions that could help with this? Also, I've noticed a strange sound when I breathe at night. Any idea what's going on?

I'm noticing that I've been getting this really sticky, gel-like cough from my mouth lately, and I'm kinda worried about what it could mean. Do you think it might have something to do with my lungs? Also, which type of doctor should I see about this?

This can indicate excessive mucus production in your respiratory tract. This problem may be related to your lungs. You can consult a Pulmonologist for further evaluation and management. I recommend using an expectorant like Mucinex (guaifenesin) to help thin and loosen the mucus. Be sure to drink plenty of water to help with mucus clearance.

I'm currently dealing with MDR TB and I've been trying some Ayurvedic treatments. I feel like I'm improving, but I'm not sure what the next step should be. Is there one specific test that can confirm if I still have tuberculosis, or should I look at multiple options? I'm really curious about the best way to track my progress and ensure I'm on the right path.

TB Gold standard test is sputum examination for AFB and microscopy and also Interferon gamma release essay( IGRA).

I'm really worried about my dad. He's 64 and has both asthma and diabetes, and I'm unsure if he should get Covishield or Covaxin. I'm so confused about whether any tests are necessary for asthma patients before getting vaccinated. I read that Bharat Biotech mentioned that people with allergies shouldn't take Covaxin, which adds to my worries. Also, I've heard about some people dying after getting the vaccine, and it's quite concerning. What could be the reason behind this? Can you help clarify these concerns for me?

Patient is advised pneumococcal ,infuenza vaccinations every year . Also covishield vaccine is advised to the patient.
