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 allI'm really worried about my mom. She had an X-ray done because of a recommendation from a clinic doctor, and the report mentioned something like haziness in the right middle and lower lung zones, possibly pneumonitis. When we took the report back to the same doctor, she said it's TB and gave us a prescription, including something called AKT FD KIT for 30 days, Prohance powder to take twice with milk, and Becosules for a month. I'm just not sure if we should start this 6-month treatment right away. Do you think it's a good idea to get a second opinion before starting the medication? What do you advise?

I'm really curious about eosinophilic bronchitis. Can you explain what exactly it is and what symptoms I should be looking out for? Is this something I should be worried about health-wise, like, could it cause any serious problems if left untreated?

I'm really worried about my sister. She's been dealing with whooping cough and a bit of trouble breathing. We first saw a pulmonologist who said it might be because of her high white blood cell count, which is at 17,000. He gave her Hetrazan 100 and Cefpo 200 a week ago, but she's still coughing a lot. Today, we went to see a more senior pulmonologist and he thinks it might actually be asthma. He prescribed things like duolin rotacaps, seroflo rotacaps 250, levosalbutamol, ipratropium bromide, and mebendazole. I'm just confusedis this because of the high white blood cell count or is it asthma?
it is due to asthma
