I've been having a cold and cough for the last ten days, and it's typical for me to have a cough for about two weeks. But this time, something unusual happened. In the mornings, when I cough and spit, there's a little blood mixed with the mucus or sputum. It started happening in the last two days, and it's freaking me out a bit. This morning, I even coughed on purpose to see if it would happen again, and it did. I don't smoke, so I'm not sure why this is happening. Can you tell me what this might be and what I should do?

View allMy spouse has had a dry cough for the past two months. It's not constant or really severe, but it's been lingering for a while now. It all started with a fever and wet cough for two days, but now it's just a dry cough. He's been on medication for a week, and although its improved a bit, it hasn't completely gone away. Oddly enough, he sometimes starts coughing after drinking water. I'm really hoping to find a permanent solution to this. Could you help us figure out what might be going on?
Ecg,sputum for AFB ,microscopy and x-ray chest pa view is advised to the patient.

I'm taking Montek LC, usually half a tablet at night, but sometimes I get shortness of breath during the day. Is it okay to take another half tablet in the morning too if that happens?
Montek LC is typically taken once a day, and it's best to follow your doctor's instructions. If you're experiencing shortness of breath or choking during the day, it's important to consult your doctor to discuss adjusting the dosage or considering an alternative treatment.

I've been feeling really worried about some symptoms I've been having and I need some advice. I saw a news report from a doctor saying that taking excessive steam can lead to pneumonia. I've been taking really hot steam three times a day with the gas on for about 45 days straight, starting since August. Since then, I've been experiencing a really itchy throat, pain in my nose, upper chest, upper back, neck, and shortness of breath. During winter, I get these severe chills. Ive done so many tests like cbp, crp, serum creatinine, serum uric acid, thyroid, vitamin b12, vitamin d3, nt pro bnp, calcium, eeg, but everything comes back normal. I've used medicines like azee, doxcyp, bilagra, salt gargle, betadine, Medrol, pregabalin, and mk flutron, but nothing is helping. If I'm lying down in bed, there's no pain, but as soon as I get up, there's severe upper back pain and I'm unable to sit or do any work. I also feel too much shortness of breath, throat itching, and nose pain. It's not COVID because I had an hrct chest to rule it out which showed corads 2 infective etiology and bilateral minimal pleural effusions. I've visited many doctors but still don't feel any better. Can you help me understand what's going on and what I can do next?
Yes,continue same treatment.Ecg and x-ray chest pa view is advised to the patient.
