I've been dealing with this uncontrollable cough and this thick, frothy sputum for almost four weeks now and it's not getting better. It's really hard to breathe with the coughing being non-stop. I'm starting to get worried. What could be causing this, and what should I do?

This could be a sign of a respiratory infection or condition such as pneumonia or bronchitis. I recommend you take an over-the-counter cough suppressant like Delsym (dextromethorphan) as directed on the package. Additionally, you can use an expectorant like Mucinex (guaifenesin) to help loosen the mucus. It is important to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention promptly.

View allI've been experiencing a need to take long breaths frequently, mostly during the night after dinner, but sometimes in the morning and during the day too. It's not constant, but it has happened about 23 times over the last year and lasts for about 10 to 15 days before going away. I'm really concerned about this. I also have issues with sudden and continuous sneezing. What could be causing these symptoms?

I've been having this lingering neck pain and a cough that just doesn't seem to go away. It's starting to make me feel really uneasy. On top of that, I've been experiencing ear pain and feeling more tired lately. I had TB in the past, and I'm worried this might be related. Could these symptoms be connected to my previous infection, or is it something else entirely?

I've been really concerned about my friend who's been having blood mixed with his morning sputum for the past three months. Since November, he's noticed a little blood in his saliva even during the day. He's had all sorts of tests done, like endoscopy, bronchoscopy, and blood tests, but everything's coming back normal. What other tests should he consider to get to the bottom of this, and which specialist should he see for a proper diagnosis? Also, could you recommend any good doctors in Coimbatore he could consult with?
