Natural health with Sean McCarthy: Sinuses and recurring UTIs

Sean McCarthy gives his advice on sinuses and recurring UTIs

I am 81 years old, in good health and active. However, I’ve had a cough for three months, which is worse at night and in the morning. I believe the source of the problem is my sinuses. My doctor put me on antibiotics but there has not been much improvement. (When I cough I get a taste in my mouth.) To understand the underlying cause, the doctor has mentioned an X-ray. I would be grateful for any advice you can give me.

As it’s long-standing, your cough could be due to acid reflux. It could also be bronchitis (the taste could be an indicator or this). But you know your own body best, so your intuition could be correct and your sinuses are the root of the problem.
