Will you be able to help me with recovering from intestinal lung disease? I'm really worried and don't know much about it. What steps should I be taking, and is it something that can be managed at home, or do I need to consider other treatments?

Question

I've had this dry cough for a couple of weeks now, and it just seems to hang around. I don't have a cold or anything, but there's this constant feeling of something in my throat, almost like there's phlegm I can't clear. It's like my nose is dripping into my throat, which is super annoying. I had a Blood Picture test done recently, and I noticed the monocyte level is really low. Could that be causing this cough, or are they unrelated? Just trying to figure out what might be going on here.

How do I know if my lungs are damaged?
