My mom is 65 and she's been dealing with a really bad cough for the past two months. We got an x-ray done, and the doctor said we need to do a CT scan. They found a nodule about 6.7mm by 6.2mm in the upper lobe of her right lung. It's non-calcified, and I'm really worried. Does this mean there's a high chance it could be cancer, or could it be something like bronchitis or pneumonia instead?

I've been dealing with a cough that started a couple of months ago after I had a cold. I went to the clinic and got some medicine, but the cough stayed, and theres been this weird sound coming from my chest. I visited the doctor again about two weeks ago, and he mentioned it was an infection and gave me syrup and some pills, but it hasn't cleared up. After eating meals, I notice white mucus fills my chest, and I have to cough it up right after eating. Plus, when I play football for about an hour, the cough kicks in, and I start feeling really fatigued. What's going on here, and how can I get back to feeling healthy again?
Probable diagnosis is upper respiratory tract infection.Patient is advised tab augmentin 625mg orally,thrice dailly for 5 days,tab levocetrizine 10 mg for 5 days and syrup salbutoml 10 ml thrice dailly for 5 days.

I've been having this lingering neck pain and a cough that just doesn't seem to go away. It's starting to make me feel really uneasy. On top of that, I've been experiencing ear pain and feeling more tired lately. I had TB in the past, and I'm worried this might be related. Could these symptoms be connected to my previous infection, or is it something else entirely?
