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.

WPW is very sensitive to the drug's. So it is advised to you to take less drugs as possible.

I advice you to take your sputums cultures and sensitivity done. This will give you a idea of possible pathogen and its drug sensitivity.

You can also take dextromethophan for cough bromehixine for sputum digestion. As you have WPW it is advised to you to take the drugs under doctors Guidance's.

Please also do respiratory exercise as it also help you to remove the sputum. And to treat infection.

I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.

Thank you,
