My dad has been smoking for the past 20 years, and now he's dealing with breathing issues. I'm wondering if there's any medical treatment or process that can help clear his lungs and improve his condition, besides the regular medicines? He has cut down on smoking, but the breathing problems are still there. What options do we have?

View allI'm a bit worried about my X-ray report. It mentions mildly prominent bronchovascular markings and a horizontal fissure. Is this something I should be concerned about? I recently had a cold with a cough and fever for a few days, but after taking antibiotics, the fever's gone. That's why I went for a chest X-ray. Could you help me understand what these findings mean?

I'm really worried about my wife. She's 35 and has been dealing with this heavy dry cough for over two weeks now. It's like she's coughing 247, and it's been tough on her. We went to see an MD and he said she might be dealing with asthma and an allergic cough. The doctor gave her some meds: Cefakind CV 500 twice a day, Doxomax XP twice a day, Grilinctus BM syrup three times a day, and she's also using a nebulizer twice daily. Her blood and urine tests came back normal but shes still not feeling any better. Could you help us understand what might be the best treatment for this kind of heavy allergic dry cough? We're feeling pretty stuck and don't know what to do next.
