I've had a really bad cough for the last couple of days, and there's a wheezing sound when I breathe sometimes. I've been taking Rex cof syrup, but it hasn't helped at all. I did a COVID test, and thankfully, it's negative. I'm just wondering if there's any other medicine or treatment youd recommend for this cough?

Is it normal to feel the same pain I had before my thoracentesis, even though it's been 36 hours since it was done? I'm worried the pleural fluid might have come back. Could tuberculosis be causing this effusion? The pain is really bothering me, and I'm waiting on my report, which won't be ready until next week. Can you give me some advice in the meantime?

So Ive been checking my oxygen levels with an oximeter and it seems to start at 96 but then drops to 88 within just a couple of minutes. Im not showing any symptoms and I havent tested positive for COVID. Should I be worried about this or could it just be that the oximeter isnt working right?

Better to check with other oimetres,if its still showing the same get an ray doen and visit Physician for appropriate management

I've noticed my wife has been dealing with breathlessness for the last 4 years. She often feels like she needs to take deep breaths just to feel comfortable, even when she's just sitting around doing nothing. Sometimes, these episodes of breathlessness disappear for days. What could be causing this, and should we be worried?
