I've been dealing with a cough that I had a couple of months ago, and while it seems to be gone now, I'm still having trouble with persistent mucus. Recently, I've started feeling some chest tightness and alternating mild to moderate pain. Just a few days ago, my throat was also bothering me. I'm really concerned about what's causing all these symptoms, especially during this lockdown. Any advice on what I should do?

I'm really struggling with this persistent dry cough I've had for about 4 months now, and it gets worse when I'm trying to sleep. I've tried a bunch of antibiotics and different cough syrups prescribed by local doctors, but they only work temporarily and then the cough comes back. I'm a 33-year-old male and have RHD MS. I've undergone ballooning twice and currently I'm on MetXL BD, Aquazide 12.5 OD, and Pentidure 12 LA every 21 days. I consulted with my cardiac specialist at AIIMS in New Delhi, and he said my heart is okay but recommended a PA view X-ray and a chest specialist consultation. I've been using a water steamer for steam for about 15-20 days and taking some antibiotics and cough syrups from local docs, but nothing seems to be working now. I've also been dealing with constipation and gastric problems, and I started taking laxatives for bowel clearance, which has been effective. I don't drink or smoke and don't use any other drugs. What should I do next?
Pulmonologist opinion is advised to the patient.

I've been dealing with a cough for nearly two years, and about three months ago, my doctor sent me for Blood IgE, PFT, and FENO tests. Based on my IgE results, I finished a course of allergy tablets, and I was also prescribed Esiflo, which I'm supposed to take with Lupihaler. I initially felt dizzy on this medication, so I stopped after a couple of days, but I've restarted at a reduced dose. Should I keep taking Esiflo even though it makes me feel uncomfortable? And looking at my PFT and FENO reports, do they suggest if my lungs are in bad shape? I'm also experiencing some shortness of breath and chest heaviness lately. I can't reach my doctor right now, so I'd really appreciate some insight. Thank you.
Yes,continue same treatment as advised.
