Why do I start sneezing non-stop and get a runny nose if I brush my teeth late after waking up? It's really frustrating because it affects my whole day. I saw a doctor in Nellore, A.P., and he gave me MontipLC for two months but it didnt help much. He suggested some tests at Apollo Hospital in Chennai. What do you think I should do next or what might be causing this?

Monitoring progress is crucial when treating lymph node tuberculosis (TB). Here are some indicators to assess your progress: *Clinical Indicators* 1. *Reduced swelling*: Lymph node swelling should decrease in size. 2. *Less pain*: Pain and tenderness in the affected area should subside. 3. *Improved overall health*: You should experience increased energy levels and a general feeling of well-being. *Laboratory Tests* 1. *ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) test*: This test measures inflammation. A decrease in ESR levels indicates improvement. 2. *CRP (C-Reactive Protein) test*: This test measures inflammation and infection. A decrease in CRP levels indicates improvement. 3. *Chest X-ray*: This test evaluates lung health. Improvement in lung condition indicates effective treatment. 4. *Sputum smear microscopy*: This test checks for TB bacteria in sputum. A negative result indicates treatment effectiveness. *Treatment Duration* Typically, lymph node TB treatment lasts for 6-9 months. Your doctor will assess your progress and adjust treatment duration accordingly. *Follow-up Appointments* Regular follow-up appointments with your doctor are crucial to monitor progress, adjust treatment, and address any concerns. After 2 months of treatment, you should start experiencing some improvement in symptoms. However, it's essential to continue treatment as prescribed and attend follow-up appointments to ensure complete recovery.

My mom has been dealing with this chronic dry cough, and she's constantly clearing her throat. She's not experiencing any wheezing or breathing issues. It lasts for about 12 weeks before it disappears, but the cough isn't frequent and usually vanishes for 2 weeks and then doesn't show up for another 12 months. I'm getting worried and wondering if it could be something serious or possibly related to allergies?
