my wife has got her tonsillitis operated since last 6 years and from last 1 year she is getting colds and coughs and it is more effective when she lies to sleep. Secondly I have consulted doctors and have taken Xray of her chest and tested her spits and both the reports showed negative results for TB
Hello, Welcome to ChatDoctorI understand your concerns. Your wife may be suffering from lower respiratory tract infection which might be of viral origin. I would advise her to take higher antibiotics like 4th generation cephalosporins along with antihistamines like tablet. Cetrizine. Also take syrup. Bricarex for cough 3 times daily. Although antibiotics won't be of much help in viral infections, it will help in preventing the secondary bacterial infections. Hope I have answered your query. Thank you
