Why haven't my cough and thick sputum gone away even after 10 years since taking CAT1? Now I've been diagnosed with MDR, and although I don't have major issues apart from the constant coughing, it's really persistent, especially in the morning. I also get tired easily throughout the day. Could this lingering cough be related to MDR, and is it normal to feel this tired all the time? Should I be worried about missing chest pains or aches? What can I do to manage this better?

View allIs it okay for a 17-year-old boy to use an asthalin inhaler? If I start using it, do I need to carry it everywhere I go? Could it actually lead to more breathing issues after using it? I checked online and found info saying the inhaler works for about 4-6 hours after taking two puffs. Does that mean the breathing problems will definitely return after those hours?
consult pulmonologist he will guide you about good inhalers that u have to take for only one or two times according to your requirements

I first had a fever on the 10th of October, but now it's just a persistent cough. I tested positive for COVID-19 on the 23rd. The fever's gone but I'm stuck with this cough. I'm currently taking doxycycline, Montelukast, LC Mucinac 600, Pantoprazole, Zincovit, and Limcee. I'm feeling better today, but should I be worried about any complications from the virus? And any thoughts on how long this might last?
14 days time is required for complete recovery and to be free from infection.

I've had this really bad cough for four days now and my doctor asked me to get a chest x-ray. The report mentioned something about patchy haziness in the lower right zone, which they said might suggest pneumonitis. I'm kinda worried because there's also blood in my sputum in the morning, though it turns to just yellow sputum later in the day. Could this be something serious? What should I be doing about it?
It sounds like you have a case of pneumonitis, which is causing inflammation in the lung tissue, and the blood in your sputum could be due to irritation or mild bleeding from the airways. The yellow sputum suggests an ongoing infection. It's important to follow up with your doctor for appropriate treatment, such as antibiotics or other therapies, to help with healing.
