I've been dealing with a chronic belching problem ever since my first chest tube 3 years ago. This week, I was back in the hospital with another chest tube, and interestingly enough, I barely burped at all while I was there. Now that I'm back home, the burping has started up again, and it's painful to take a deep breath. I'm really worried my lung might have collapsed again. Could these issues be connected? Should I go back to the hospital?

View allI'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 been on treatment for TB in my lungs for about 80 days now, and while I've noticed I'm not coughing as much, Ive started getting yellow mucus in the mornings for the past 15 days. Sometimes it even has a bit of blood in it. Is this something to worry about? Will the coughing go away completely, and is it normal to see blood in the mucus? I've attached my CT scan report for you to check out.

I've had some cold symptoms like fever, sweats, chills, and a cough. Most of them have gone away, but my cough and chest pain are still there. The chest pain is only on one side and it feels like a burning sensation. Should I be worried about this?
take antacid for 1 week
