Hi,

Welcome to HCM,

I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.

2 weeks sinus infection complicating with cough and chest heaviness should be ruled out with x- ray chest and blood tests.


He may require antibiotics and mucolytics. kindly visit an ent surgeon for the same.


all the best, take care.
