I'm living in a cold climate, and for the past couple of years, as winter approaches, I've noticed I have this ongoing breathing problem along with a cough that produces phlegm. It seems to linger all winter long. I've tried using some anti-cough syrups, but they haven't really helped much. Do you have any advice on what I should do?

I'm concerned about a non-homogenous opacity nodular in the right upper zone of my lungs. I'm planning to undergo a GCC medical examination for Saudi Arabia and I'm wondering what this means for my health and if it will affect my medical test. Could you provide some insights or advice on this situation?

I've had this really bad cough for a week now, and it's not going away even after seeing an ENT. There's a lot of phlegm with it, and I've also got a cold. What could be going on? Should I be doing something different, or is there anything else I can try to feel better?

Drink plenty of water,eat soft foods like cooked cereal, mashed potatoes, soft fruits, yogurt and soft-cooked eggs...give adequate rest to your body..Avoid spicy foods or acidic foods. Gargle with warm salt water. gargling several times a day can help relieve throat pain....you will require antibiotics to clear up infection..if no improvements consult your doctor for fallow up
