I've been having a lot of trouble with my breathing and seem to be coughing all the time. It's becoming a regular thing, and I'm starting to get a bit worried. It feels like a never-ending cycle, and I'm just not sure what's going on. Could this be something serious, or is there something I can do to help ease these symptoms?

I've been dealing with a persistent dry cough for about three months now. There's no cold or fever with it, but the coughing isn't constantjust enough that it's causing some pain in my throat. I'm not sure what's going on, and I'm a bit worried since it's been so long. Any advice on what might be causing this or steps I could take to feel better?
Persistent dry cough for more than 3 months can be due to various reasons such as postnasal drip, asthma, or acid reflux. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try taking over-the-counter cough suppressants like Dextromethorphan. You can also consider using throat lozenges containing Benzocaine to help with the throat pain. Additionally, staying hydrated and using a humidifier can also provide relief. If your symptoms persist, it's important to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I've got a bit of a concern and would love some insight. So, around 15 years ago, I dealt with pleural effusion, but everything got sorted out with the treatment, and I haven't really had any lung issues since. Now, I've been told to take Montair for about 4 months because my IGE levels are up and I've got this moderate cough. I'm just wondering if taking Montair might cause any side effects related to the lungs? Is it genuinely safe to keep taking it for about 5 months? Just want to make sure I'm not overlooking anything.
Montair LC (montelukast and levocetirizine) is generally safe for long-term use in managing allergic conditions and cough. Given your history of pleural effusion, it's important to monitor your lung health, but the medication typically does not have direct harmful effects on the lungs. Always follow your doctor's advice and report any unusual symptoms.
