Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi -- I was sick for about a month with a viral infection going around -- cold-like or bronchitis-like symptoms that moved from head to chest to sore throat and ears. The cough stays with me, still -- a dry, persistent cough at night that I cannot shake. It took two regimens of antibiotics to start feeling somewhat better after the doc eliminated the flu. Still, I have laryngitis and have trouble talking, plus it feels as if something is in my throat. I still cannot get through a full night's sleep without a coughing fit (clear fluid). It feels like asthma -- but I'm anxious to start lap swimming and golfing again.
