I've had this wet cough for about a month now, and it seems to get worse at night. I've tried a couple of different cough syrups, but they haven't really helped. Should I be worried? What else could be causing this, and what can I do to get some relief?

I've been experiencing this weird chest congestion and discomfort for about six months now. I went to see a cardiologist and got an echo test done, and they said my heart is fine. There's no pain coming from the heart area either. But this annoying chest pressure just keeps coming and going. It's not interfering with my daily activities, but I have been feeling more tired than usual. Breathing isn't an issue, thankfully. However, today I noticed a sore throat along with the chest congestion. There's no mucus with blood or anything alarming like that, but the discomfort is still there from my throat to my chest. Could you offer some advice on this?

So, I recently did a TB Mantoux test and my lymphocytes count is 46. The result mentioned something like Microscopic Induration at 3235 and there's erythema present. My doctor said something about seeing a pulmonology specialist for future options. Given all this, do you think this will affect my chances of getting a visa? It's really stressing me out.

Pulmonologist opinion is advised to the patient.

I'm feeling chest pain and noticing some fiber-like stuff coming from my mouth when I take steam after recovering from COVID. I'm worried it might be lung fibrosis. Can you tell me what might be going on and if there's any medication I should consider?
