I've been having this pain at the edge of my left chest whenever I take a deep breath. It's been going on for five days and doesn't seem to be getting any better. Could you tell me what might be causing this? I'm a bit worried because my normal breaths don't hurt, only the deep ones do. Any advice on what I should do next?

I've been experiencing a dry cough for a couple of weeks now and just recently started noticing thick blood streaks in my sputum when I clear my throat in the morning. I'm a bit worried since I've been smoking for about three years, although I stopped when this started happening. Should I be concerned about this?

My wife has been on Akurit4 for her TB treatment, and it seemed to be going well, but now, on the 15th day, she's got this fever of 102 again. Is this something that happens during TB treatments? When can we expect the fever to go away?
