I've had this persistent cough for about two weeks now and I've been trying different cough syrups. I started with Benadryl, but it didn't really seem to help. Then, my doctor suggested I try BroZedex, which gave me some relief, but it wasn't perfect. I also used Gokof by Fizikem, which made it a bit better, but the cough is still hanging on. What else can I try to get rid of this cough?

View allMy mom's 53 and she's got diabetes and this dust allergy thing going on. She randomly got short of breath today and couldn't talk, which panicked us a bit. She usually gets mild asthma when she's near dust, but today it hit out of nowhere with no dust around. After taking Asthalin, she felt better. I'm curious about what could've triggered this sudden asthma attack without being around dust, and is it okay for her to use Asthalin every day?
when symptoms exacerbated take asthalin

I'm having trouble breathing fully, like I can't completely expand my lungs or part of them isn't getting enough oxygen. I find myself waiting to yawn to feel like Im finally getting enough air. This happened last year too, and the doctor said it was stress and it went away in two weeks without any meds. This time I saw an MD pulmonary, and they did tests for thyroid, which came back fine. I'm negative for COVID, and all my lipid and liver function tests are okay. But now I'm not sure who to go to next, and the difficulty in breathing just seems to be getting worse. What could this be?

I'm really worried because every morning when I wake up, I have this really bad cough. Sometimes there's even a little blood in it, and I feel like I might throw up. It only happens in the morning though. What could be causing this?
Morning cough with blood and occasional vomiting may indicate an underlying respiratory issue, such as bronchitis, pneumonia, or tuberculosis; other possible causes include acid reflux, postnasal drip, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD); consult a pulmonologist
