Sounds like the one year I was sick for 6 months after the flu, I had light case of pneumonia but it was like I was well except for my lungs.
Didn’t clear till I burnt it out with a burning hot diet of spicy food for 3 weeks that would make me sweat a pool of water each time.
Was inspired by Chinese and Thai beliefs in treating lung issues with spicy food.
All kinds of sweating are good.
The tarantella, a dance created for people who had been bitten by the spider.
A friend of mine used to take hot showers as soon as he got the first symptom of a cold. It worked.
