Since cough with phlegm has been present for 2 months and you also have shortness of breath, it needs proper evaluation rather than repeated antibiotics, especially if blood tests are mostly normal. Persistent cough can be related to airway sensitivity, allergy, sinus/post-nasal drip, reflux, or residual inflammation after infection. Slightly raised eosinophils may suggest an allergic component. Helpful measures: • Avoid cold, refrigerated and heavy mucus-forming foods • Prefer warm fluids, light diet and steam inhalation • Sitopaladi churna with honey or Talisadi churna are commonly used for productive cough in suitable cases Because breathlessness is present, please consult for detailed assessment (and pulmonary evaluation if needed) so treatment can be personalized and any reminder signs are properly checked.

HELLO, A persistent cough with phlegm for 2 months + shortness of breath suggests a chronic respiratory irritation. Since blood tests are mostly normal (mild eosinophils), this may indicate -Allergic bronchitis -chronic phlegm accumulation (kapha dominance) -post infectious airway inflammation -early asthma tendency In Ayurveda, this condition resembles Kaphaja Kasa or Mild Tamara shwasa AYURVEDIC VIEW -Excess Kapha Dosha-> thick phlegm -Mild Vata involvement-> breathlessness -Weak Agni (digestive fire)-> mucus formation INTERNAL MEDICATIONS 1) SHITOPALADI + TALISADI CHURNA= 1 tsp with honey twice dialy after meals 2) YASHTIMADHU POWDER= 1/2 tsp with warm water in morning 3) VASAVALEHA =. 1 tsp twice daily after meals 4) AGASTYA HARITAKI AVALEHA= 1 tsp at night HOME REMEDIES Boil water with -tulsi leaves -ginger -black pepper Drink warm 2-3 times daily Turmeric Milk at night- if no heavy phlegm then only take Steam inhalation with ajwain or eucalyptus oil- once daily DIET -warm ,light meals -moong dal soup -ginger, garlic in food -warm water whole day AVOID -curd especially at night -cold drinks -banana -fried and oily food -ice cream LIFESTYLE -avoid dust and cold exposure -do Anulom vilom pranayam -do Bhastrika lightly if no severe breathlessness -sleep before 10:30 pm DO FOLLOW HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL THANK YOU
