I'm really concerned because I've been dealing with a persistent cough for the past two months. I've tried different treatments allopathic, ayurvedic, and homeopathic, but nothing seems to provide relief. It gets particularly bad whenever I'm near an air conditioner. Could you help me understand what's going on or suggest anything else I should try?

So, this morning I noticed I had thick yellow sputum with some blood in it, but it only happened once and I haven't had any other symptoms. I'm kinda worried about what might be going on. Is this something serious, or could it just be a random thing? What should I be doing or watching out for?

Patient is advised tab augmentin 625 mg ,orally, thrice daily for 7 days, tab levocetrizine 10 mg bedtime for 5 days and syrup salbutamol 10 ml thrice dailly for 7 days .

My mom caught COVID back on April 17, 2021, and even though its been a couple of months, her oxygen levels are still fluctuating between 92 and 95. Plus, shes been coughing when she eats. I took her to see a pulmonologist on June 1, and she was under treatment until June 25, but the doctor said we didn't need to go back. Is this normal for her recovery?

I'm really worried because my pulmonologist mentioned something about "allergic airway disease" after my PFT test. I don't really understand what that is. Is it serious? Also, the doctor prescribed me Ofloxacin O2 tablets and Fexodine tablets. Can you explain what these medications are for and if I should be concerned about taking them?

no its allergy ,the medicines given is good , continue it
