I'm concerned about a non-homogenous opacity nodular in the right upper zone of my lungs. I'm planning to undergo a GCC medical examination for Saudi Arabia and I'm wondering what this means for my health and if it will affect my medical test. Could you provide some insights or advice on this situation?

Cardiologist opinion is advised to the patient.

I'm really worried because despite following the treatment of Cepodem OD, Ivermectin, Doxycycline, Azithromycin, PanD, and a multivitamin my SPO2 levels are still below 80 and there's no sign of improvement. What could be going wrong and what should I do next?

I've been dealing with this persistent cough for several days now, and it just doesn't seem to be improving. I've tried using bisolvon cough forte, but it hasn't really helped. What else can I do to get some relief? Should I be worried about this?

Try doing salt water gargling twice daily and drink only warm water. If there is no relief then please consult a doctor who can examine you and advise accordingly.
