I've been having a productive cough for the past two days, and it's really bothering me, especially in the mornings right after I wake up and then again at bedtime. Should I be worried about this, and is there anything I can do to help with it?

My mom's been having a tough time with her asthma. Even though she's on medication, it's not really doing the trick. Could you recommend a good doctor for her treatment? I'm really worried because nothing seems to be controlling it.

Is there anything we can do about my dads recurring cough that started around November 2016? It took about 6 months to stop the first time, even after consulting doctors. Now its happening again and some doctors think it might be due to an allergy from working at a cement plant. Could you give us some guidance on what steps we should take next?

I'm really worried about my dad. He's been having this thick, yellow, milky mucus with a little bit of blood in it from his nose in the mornings. The rest of the day, there's no blood, just yellow-green mucus, even though it's been two weeks since he started antibiotics. He was prescribed Azithromycin for five days and Doxycycline twice daily. Twice he coughed up some blood, but it stopped on the same day. Now, he's mostly coughing up white, thick phlegm. This started after his fever went away. What do you think might be going on? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
