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'm finding myself taking really deep breaths more often, and it feels like I'm putting in extra effort just to breathe sometimes. Is this something that's normal, or do you think I should get it checked out with some tests?

I've been diagnosed with bronchitis after checking my x-ray, and I've taken a lot of antibiotics, but now I'm having pain on the lower right side of my chest. The weird thing is I don't have any cough at all. I've just started taking Prentiss 800. What should I do next? Any advice would really help.

it's gastritis because antibiotics will cause gastritis sometimes
