Question 1

I'm really concerned because I recovered from COVID about a month and a half ago, but I've had this persistent cough for the last two months. There's no mucus, flu, or cold symptoms accompanying it. Should I be worried about this lingering cough, and is there something I can do about it?

Accepted Answer

Tab azithromycin 500mg,orally,once daily for 3 days is advised to the patient.

Question 2

I'm really curious and a bit worried because I've been having digestion issues and noticed blood in my stool. My CT scan of the whole abdomen came back normal except it showed something called subsegmental atelectasis in the posterobasal segment of my left lower lobe. I've also been experiencing shortness of breath. I consulted a pulmonologist, did an x-ray, spirometry, and Spo2, and all those tests were normal. He mentioned it might just be anxiety, and I have had anxiety for about 45 years now. I'm wondering if anxiety could really be causing these symptoms, or if there's something else I should look into?

Accepted Answer

do not worry, you are just having anxiety. relax and reduce your stress

Question 3

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with a cough, fever, and breathing problems for the past three months. I've been to the hospital and they said it's pneumonia, but even with the medication, I don't feel any better. Can you tell me what the best treatment would be?

Accepted Answer

we need to know the severity of pneumonia and then start treatment

My dad's been having some breathing troubles for almost three years now. He's got this heavy feeling in his chest, a dry cough, and it gets really bad with heavy breathing at night. We're pretty worried. Can you give us some advice on what might be happening with him and what we should do next?
