I've just finished my tuberculosis treatment earlier this April after nine months on medication, but then I caught COVID at the end of the month. Since then, I haven't had any COVID symptoms, and an HRCT showed no lung infections. However, I'm struggling with a persistent dry cough and an itchy throat. There's also white mucus that shows up every morning but only a little bit. I've tried Alex syrup and some home remedies like ginger and honey, but nothing seems to be working. What could be causing this ongoing cough, and should I be worried?

View allI'm a 29-year-old guy dealing with allergic rhinitis, and now it's progressed to allergic asthma. I had a chest X-ray, which was normal, but my AEC count came back high. A few days ago, I had a really severe breathing problem, and my doctor put me on Airtec SF 250, ABphylline SR 200 mg, and Montair FX. These have helped a little, but I'm still feeling some breathing issues. I'm wondering if it'll take some time for the symptoms to fully settle down, or if there's anything else I could be taking to feel better. Could you give me some advice?

I'm still feeling a bit worried because I'm coughing up brown phlegm even though I finished my Levofloxacin course. The chest pain I had is mostly gone, which is a relief since it was pretty uncomfortable, but I can still feel something in my lungs. Does this mean the bronchitis isn't fully cleared up? Should I be doing anything else, or might it just take a bit more time for my lungs to feel normal again?

My husband has been struggling with a dry cough ever since he recovered from COVID two months ago. We went to the doctor and they recommended using a Budamet 400 mg inhaler, but he's still coughing a lot, especially at night. It's really concerning. What could be causing this, and is there anything else we should be doing?
take tablet tusq for 5 days ,twice a day
