It's been a year now on the anti-TB treatment, and I'm really hoping to understand how things are going. I've attached the chest X-ray report, and I'd love if you could take a look and let me know what it means. Do you think things are progressing well?

I've been dealing with this persistent cough for over a month now, ever since I recovered from COVID. It's really tough because it keeps getting worse at night. Last year around the same time, I had a similar issue where I coughed for more than two months. When I got an X-ray, the doctor said it was allergic bronchitis. The meds didn't help back then, but homeopathic treatments from Ayush did the trick. I'm really at a loss now though. Do you think I should get some tests done to figure out what's going on, or could you suggest any medicines that might help?

I've been noticing these weird gelatin-like balls whenever I cough, and they come in different colors. I'm also experiencing some chest tightness and wheezing. What could be causing this, and is it something serious I should be worried about?

Coughing up clear jelly balls may be caused by a buildup of mucus in the airways. This may occur due to allergies or infections such as common colds or flu, accompanied with dehydration. If symptoms continue for more than a few weeks, it is best to contact a doctor to find out the cause and get treatment. If the color of the mucus resembles yellow or greenish mucus, it may be indicative of a bacterial infection, which may require antibiotic therapy.
