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?

I've been spitting up white mucus throughout the day, and I'm a bit concerned. I'm a smoker, and I used to smoke 5 cigarettes a day, but I've cut it down to 2 now. Lately, I've noticed this white mucus, especially in the morning, and one morning it even looked black. Could this be related to my smoking, or is it something else I should be worried about?

I've been having some issues for a while now and I'm hoping you can help me out. Last year, during the first wave of covid, I had a fever and all the symptoms but never actually got tested. I just went to a nearby hospital, took some steroids and tablets, and then recovered. But ever since, for about nine months now, I've been dealing with this constant mucus coming from my lungs and throat through my mouth, and there's this stuck feeling and congestion in my chest. I've seen a lot of doctors and gone through all sorts of tests like blood, urine, X-Ray, ECG, and even a hologram scan, but they all say everything is fine. I'm still really struggling with these issues. Any ideas what might be going on?

if tests are normal need not worry, start taking some cough syrup ,drink hot water

I'm really worried about my son. He caught a cold back in January 2014 and then started coughing a lot, having trouble breathing too. A doctor prescribed budate 200 rotacap, which he used for two years. After that, everything seemed fine for about eight months, but then the symptoms returned in December. So we saw another doctor who gave him a Levolin inhaler. We've now consulted a pulmonologist who has prescribed formonide 100, deriphyllin od 300, and montair lc kid. How long do you think he should keep taking these medicines?

Continue formonide inhaler sos for breathing difficulty.
