I'm kind of worried because I finished my TB treatment a year ago, but now I'm experiencing chest pain, although I don't have a cough or anything like that. I'm just wondering, is it possible that the TB could be back even though my reports aren't showing any signs of it?

I'm really curious about something. I quit smoking in February, and since then, whenever I clear my throat with a lot of effort, I notice dark particles in my phlegm. I'm not coughing and don't have any other symptoms, but this has me a bit concerned. Could this be something to worry about, or is it a normal part of the process after quitting smoking?

take tablet mucinac for 5 days
