I've been dealing with a dry and nagging cough for the past couple of weeks, and it's really starting to worry me. I've already tried levocetirizine tablets and several cough syrups geared towards dry coughs, but nothing seems to be helping. What should I do to find some relief?

I've got a bit of a situation and was hoping to get some advice. About 30 years ago, I had TB and went through 9 months of treatment. Everything's been fine since then, and Ive stayed fit without any problems. But when I was in Dubai in 2016, during a medical test, they found an old scar on my chest and deported me, even though all my other tests like blood, skin, and sputum came back negative. I'm really curious if there's any kind of medicine or treatment out there that can help clear up or minimize this scar on an x-ray. I'd love to know what my options might be so that I can consider getting treatment and avoid issues like this in the future.

It's great to hear that you're healthy and have no current issues. Unfortunately, there is no medicine to remove or "clean" an old TB scar on an X-ray. However, the scar doesn't necessarily affect your health. You may want to consult a pulmonologist or a specialist to explore options for presenting your case in a way that addresses the medical concerns.
