Hello dear,

Thank you for your contact to health care magic.

I read and understand your concern.

I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.

Your husband is suffering from the respiratory tract infection.

I advice you should do culture and sensitivity from the sputum.

It will guide us regarding the possible pathogen and it s sensitivity for various antimicrobials.

Once you take the drug according to report it will cure the infection rapidly.

Along with drug please also do respiratory exercise. Like deep breathing and others. Physiotherapist can guide you regarding this.

Please maintian good hygiene, locally and systematically.

Do not discontinue the antibiotics in between. It will create resistant in the bacteria and makes the future treatment difficult.
