Thanks for contacting HCM. Dear patient having cough and cold one or 2 times a year is better than normal as most people suffer more. As you have been tested for tuberculosis and found to negative you should not worry about TB anymore. You have not mentioned whether you smoke or not as smokers tend to generate more sputum. Also if you are living in a metro city pollution is also an important factor for sputum formation. As you have mentioned that you have gradually improved so most likely you had a normal infection which can happen to anyone, so stop worrying and relax. Regards
