My wife has been dealing with a really bothersome dry cough and also struggles when shes around dust. I'm a bit worried and wondering what might be the best medicine for her dry cough, or Sukha Dhaska. Will Montair LC be effective, or should we be considering something else?

My mom's been coughing pretty badly for the last 3 weeks, and she also noticed some blood when she coughs. Her X-ray showed slightly prominent upper broncho vascular markings in both lungs, and her cardio thoracic ratio is a bit high. She's also been getting fevers and having trouble breathing. I'm really worriedcould these be signs of tuberculosis? Can you help me figure out what's going on?
Given your mother's symptoms of a persistent cough, blood in the cough, fever, and breathing issues, along with the X-ray findings of prominent broncho-vascular markings and a mildly raised cardio-thoracic ratio, these could be concerning for a respiratory condition such as tuberculosis (TB) or other lung infections. It is important to consult a doctor for further evaluation, including sputum tests and possibly a CT scan, to confirm the diagnosis and start appropriate treatment.
