I'm really worried about my dad. He's been having this thick, yellow, milky mucus with a little bit of blood in it from his nose in the mornings. The rest of the day, there's no blood, just yellow-green mucus, even though it's been two weeks since he started antibiotics. He was prescribed Azithromycin for five days and Doxycycline twice daily. Twice he coughed up some blood, but it stopped on the same day. Now, he's mostly coughing up white, thick phlegm. This started after his fever went away. What do you think might be going on? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I'm a bit confused about the Metaspray 10 ML Nasal the doctor recommended for me. How long am I supposed to use it? Also, I got a Levolin Inhaler prescribed, but I'm not sure when and for how long to start using it. Can you help clarify this for me?

meta nasal spray use it for 2 weeks and levolin inhaler also for 2 weeks . if symptoms persists more than 2 weeks continue it for 1 more week and visit your respective doctor

I'm wondering if regular exercise might help with the occasional pain and discomfort I still feel in my lungs after finishing my pulmonary TB treatment. My sputum test came back negative, and the test was done during a bronchoscopy. Do you think there's any specific exercise that would be beneficial? I'm really hoping to avoid going back on medication. My treatment wrapped up in July 2021.

I was hoping to get some advice about my recovery. I had a negative antigen test on August 25th, but by the 27th, I started having fever and weakness, and then on the 29th, I experienced breathing issues. After going for a HRCT on August 30th, it showed Co Rad 4, and I got admitted the same day. I went through a week of treatment with Remedesivir, Meropenam, and Azithromycin, among other things. After being discharged 10 days ago, I took a 5-day course of Fluvir and some other medicines. Now, my pulse and oxygen levels are stable, but I'm still feeling weak. Do you think I need to take any medicine for the weakness, or should I talk to a doctor about it? Is this kind of weakness normal after such treatments?
