View allI'm really worried about my sister. She's been coughing for the last three months, and it just keeps coming back. On top of that, she's lost weight compared to what she used to be. When she coughs, she feels pain in her chest, and she's also lost her appetite. She's mentioned having a bitter taste in her mouth too. A general physician advised her to get a chest X-ray. Can you help me understand what might be going on? What could possibly be causing all these symptoms?
it can be tuberculosis,soo better get an xray and sputum test done

I've just finished my TB treatment, but I'm really worried because now I'm noticing blood when I spit. Is this something that can happen after completing TB treatment? Should I be concerned about this?
It's important to take any instance of blood in the mouth seriously, even after completing TB treatment. It could be related to residual lung issues, irritation, or other causes such as a throat infection or bleeding gums. I recommend consulting with your doctor for a thorough evaluation and to rule out any complications or new conditions.

I've just started running, and I'm having some trouble with a thick cough that's building up in my throat, making it hard to breathe. It's this thick white stuff, and I'm a bit concerned since it's only been two days of running. Is this something normal? Could it be related to quitting smoking three months ago? Would love to hear your thoughts.
it might be because of your smoking habits. try working out and start steam inhalation
