I've been dealing with asthma for the past 10 years and started using a medicine called Salbair I about a year ago. I've been taking it regularly and I'm worried if that's harmful. Should I stop using it, or what should I do instead? How risky is this medicine for me?

Why am I still feeling this pain? I had a pleural effusion back in November 2017, and had thoracentesis done twice. All the tests came back negative and my doctor said it was viral. Now it's March 2018, and I'm still experiencing pain starting from my back moving up to my side and into my chest, especially when I cough, yawn, or take a deep breath.

I've been dealing with a cough for over two weeks now. I had a similar issue with a chronic cough that lasted about two months before but improved until almost two years went by. This time, I don't have any other problems like headaches, body aches, or weaknessjust the coughing. I just got my sputum test results and they show gram-positive bacilli and gram-positive cocci in pairs and chains, with occasional pus cells. What's the best way to handle this? How worried should I be?
