I'm really worried about this cough I've been having. An X-ray showed there's some haziness in my lungs, and the term "pneumonitis" came up. Can you explain what might be causing this and what kind of treatment I should consider?

I've been dealing with a cough for about two months now, and it hasn't gone away. I got an X-ray done, and everything looked fine, and my CBC results came back normal too. But this cough just won't go away. What could be causing it and what should I do next?

Syrup corex DX 10ml orally ,thrice daily for 7 days is advised to the patient.

I'm a bit anxious after getting my TB report. It says MTB not detected and RIF not detected. Could you help me understand what these results mean? Plus, there's something about Ac status P mentioned. What's that all about?
