I'm really worried about my younger brother. He's been dealing with a cough and back pain for a few weeks now. He's also having trouble breathing, and it's like it gets better for a while but then comes back. This has been going on for almost 34 weeks. What should I do?

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been dealing with Tuberculosis for the past two months, and although she was discharged from the hospital two weeks ago, she's still struggling. The doctors diagnosed her with mycobacterium tuberculosis and recommended she take Akurvit4 in the morning after meals, along with Benadon and some cough syrup. They mentioned it could take 12 weeks for her cough to improve, but it's been a little over two weeks, and she's still having cough and low-grade fevers. Is this normal? How long should I wait to see more improvement? She's had only a slight relief, but I'm getting concerned because it's not what we were hoping for.
Yes,continue same treatment as advised by the physician.

I've got a bit of a concernmy eosinophil count came back as 9, and I'm not really sure what that means. My doctor mentioned it could be connected to asthma. Should I be worried about this? What exactly does a count of 9 indicate, and how does it relate to asthma? Id appreciate any insights you have on this, especially if there's something specific I should be looking out for.
An eosinophil count of 9% can indeed be linked to asthma, as elevated eosinophils are often seen in allergic conditions and respiratory issues like asthma. Its good that your doctor is monitoring it, and managing asthma with the right treatment can help regulate this. If you have more concerns or symptoms, follow up with your doctor for further clarification.
