A member asked:
I have chronic cough i can understand but "isolated", what do you suggest?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not clear ?: Your doctors can address this question better. Isolation is done if you may have a contagious disease like TB of lung(causing chronic cough) or a serious virus infection. You doctor can tell you what kind of infection you have in order to be placed in Isolation. Is that what your question is about???
