You seem troubled by a stubborn cough lasting over 3 weeks. It's wise to visit a pulmonologist for an evaluation. Allergies, asthma, or infections often cause lingering coughs. Since medications haven't helped much, tests like X-rays may identify the source and proper treatment. Don't ignore this prolonged issue; consult your physician promptly.

I'm having cough especially while sleeping it gets more it never leaves to sleep

Female | 30

Night-time coughing can disturb your sleep. It might be caused by irritants in the air or conditions like post-nasal drip or acid reflux. Either way, it’s frustrating! You can try propping your head up while you sleep, and a humidifier might help, too. Staying hydrated is also a good idea. However, if the coughing doesn’t go away, talk to a pulmonologist about it.

Female | 19

Maybe you are an asthma patient. The changing seasons can be the reason for the asthma symptoms intensified by pollen. Various symptoms are observed such as shortness of breath, wheezing, and feeling of being out of breath. The underlying cause is the body's hypersensitivity to certain substances known as allergens. The treatment is to utilize a doctor-prescribed inhaler can assist in more effective breathing. Dust and pollen are some triggers that should be avoided.

Iam 22 year old male I have common cold symptoms and I took antibiotics and analgesics But I had a cough when I put my head in pillow and excessive salivation

Male | 22

It seems that you are going through common cold symptoms such as a continuous cough when lying down and an increase in saliva. These signs usually result from nasal congestion or irritation of the throat. Even though antibiotics are efficient in destroying bacterial infections, they will not have any effect on viral diseases such as the common cold. There are also easy remedies available for OTC ones and combination with good hydration will relieve discomfort. If can't recur, if you encounter shortness of breath, or if you continue to have too much saliva, please confer with a pulmonologist for a complete review. Always, assuming the proper course by asking for good advice is a good way to get the right information and care.

I understand your concern for your child, Muhammad Arham. It sounds like he experiences periods of breath-holding when upset, which can be alarming. This may happen due to a response to strong emotions like fear or frustration. Although these episodes can be distressing, they are often not serious. Continue to gently support him when he is upset, and encourage calm breathing. However, it is important to have a pediatrician evaluate these episodes, especially since they have occurred multiple times.

Weakness, frequent coughs and colds, and fainting can have various causes. These symptoms might indicate low iron levels in your blood, known as anemia. Feeling tired or light-headed are common sign of iron deficiency. You should eat iron-rich foods like spinach, lentils, and meat, drink plenty of water, and rest when needed. If these steps don't help after some time, seek medical advice as soon as possible, as it could be something serious that needs urgent attention.

It seems you have the common cold. A stuffed nose, dry cough, and feeling chilly are the usual signs. These signs often come from viruses that spread easily. Good you took the koflet syrup and maxigesicPE pills. Rest up, drink lots of liquids, and try using a humidifier to help with your stuffed nose. If you feel worse or your symptoms stay, best to see a pulmonologist.
