I've had this persistent cough for a few weeks now and my GP sent me for a chest x-ray. It's been over two weeks since the x-ray on Tuesday, but I haven't heard any results yet. I'm really anxious and wondering if this delay is normal. Should I be worried about this?

View allI'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 going to Kuwait for a job, and I'm really worried about this mild increase in bronchovascular markings that's shown up on my chest exam. I've got a GCC GAMCA medical test coming up, and Im anxious about whether this issue might cause me to fail the test. Ive tried reaching out to different doctors, but I havent gotten a clear response. Can you let me know if this is something that will make me unfit for the job medical test?

I've been dealing with a terrible barking cough for the past three days and it's making my chest hurt from all the coughing. Everything I've been coughing up is clear, but I'm getting worried that it might be something more serious than just a cold, especially since I used to smoke. Could this be a sign of something else?
