I'm still experiencing a mild cough even though my TB treatment seemed to have cleared everything up. Is it normal to have lingering symptoms like this after treatment, or should I be concerned about something else going on?

I'm a bit confused and worried about my recent HRCT thorax report. It mentioned that there are a few subcentimetric lymph nodes in the pre-tracheal and pre-carinal regions, but everything else seems normal. I've been having breathing issues, though my PFT report came back completely normal. It turns out the breathing problem is caused by an arytenoid covering half of my vocal cord. I just need to know, are these subcentimetric lymph nodes something to worry about, or are they considered normal?

not a cause for concern

I've been dealing with Covid for 18 days and I'm on treatment right now. I'm still running a fever around 99.1 and feeling a bit of breathlessness. My doctor decided not to go for a CT scan due to the risks and put me on Foracort 400. Should I be asking my doctor if a CT scan might be necessary at this point?

no need
