I'm really concerned about this cold and cough that keeps coming back, especially with breathing problems at night and in the early morning for the past three weeks. I saw a general physician and the medicine worked for a week, but the breathing issue starts up again as soon as I stop taking it. What should I do about this?

It sounds like you may have asthma or an allergic airway condition triggered by cold or night-time air. I recommend consulting a pulmonologist for a proper evaluation, including spirometry. Continuing appropriate long-term treatment, like inhalers, may help prevent recurrence.

View allI've been dealing with a bad cough for about a week now and I already took azithral for 5 days once a day. The thing is, for the past 3 days, I've noticed that my morning sputum has streaks of blood in it, even though the cough has gotten a bit better but it's not totally gone. Today, I actually felt a little dizzy while working. My appetite seems pretty normal, it's even increased a bit compared to before. Also, I do smoke quite a bit. Could you advise me on what might be going on or what I should do?
Vitamin D Absorption from Sunlight _Morning Sun vs. Evening Sun_ 1. _UVB rays_: Vitamin D is produced in the skin upon exposure to UVB rays from the sun. 2. _Morning sun_: UVB rays are more intense during morning hours (7-10 am), making it a better time for vitamin D production. 3. _Evening sun_: While some UVB rays are still present in the evening (4-6 pm), the intensity is significantly lower, making it less effective for vitamin D production. _Tips for Vitamin D Production from Sunlight_ 1. _Expose skin_: Expose your face, arms, and legs to sunlight for 10-15 minutes, 2-3 times a week. 2. _Avoid peak hours_: Avoid sun exposure during peak hours (11 am-3 pm) to minimize skin damage and skin cancer risk. 3. _Supplement if necessary_: If you're unable to get enough sunlight or have a severe deficiency, consult your doctor about vitamin D supplements. Remember to always practice sun safety, such as seeking shade, wearing protective clothing, and applying sunscreen with at least SPF 30.

I'm really worried about my husband. He's been dealing with cold and cough for the last few days and is on medication, but he's passed out twice while coughing. Is this something to be concerned about? Is it curable? I'm hoping it's not something serious or life-threatening. What should we do?
