Hi,
Thanks for asking. I understand your concern.
You need repeat investigations including blood counts/ ×ray chest/sputum culture &sensitivity/allergy screening test /montoux test to re evaluate the findings.&then revise your teatment plan with consultatiion of a chest physician.
At home
- You should take rest. Eat nourishing easily digestible food,drink plenty of warm water.
-hot saline gargles &vapor inhalation would ease the symptoms.
-Avoid exposure to known allergens/dust,smoke, fumes,extreme tempratures.
- take the treatment advised regularly.
Pl. don't worry. You would be alright with self care &expert advise.
Thanks.
