I'm really concerned about the cigarette tar in my lungs. How long does it typically take for my body to flush it out? Are there any specific healthy diets or foods that could help speed up the process? I'm trying to make some positive changes and would appreciate any advice!

View allI'm dealing with hereditary asthma and usually manage ok with my inhaler a few times a week, especially when it's cold. But right now, I'm wondering if there's a mild nebulizer solution that would help. Is Duolin enough for this, or should I consider trying Foracort? I'd really appreciate any advice.
without consult don't use nebulizer by your own

I've been dealing with this annoying dry cough ever since I had a viral fever about a month ago. The cold was gone in about a week, but the cough is still sticking around. It's weird because some days it's just here and there, but other days it's pretty frequent. I can't figure out what's triggering it. It's my first time having a cough linger for almost a month. Luckily, it doesn't bother me when I'm sleeping, but it kicks in when I'm eating or talking. Should I be worried about this, or do you think it'll just sort itself out?
take antibiotics and syrup ascoril
