As RNTCP guidelines cough more than 2 weeks should be investigated for TB , get your sputum test done

Should know your history in detail.. you have wet cough or dry cough?? If it is a wet cough persisting for 3 weeks , definitely you have to give sputum sample. If it is a dry cough, further investigation is required.. you can consult online.
