I have posted this five times and thought this byc was for people to help and talk to each other.I have a BB White turkey hen four months old that has been sneezing/coughing and runny nose with some swelling under eyes.My question is what is it and what should I do.Anyone with information would be highly appreciated.Thanks

You might get more info from turkey people if you post it in the turkey section. Unless you have the bird tested there's no way to know for sure what illness she has or how to treat it. I've never had turkeys so I have no ideas for you.

I have only ever had sick birds once, and I culled all 150 so you probably don't want my advice. Use the search function at the top of the page or email Harpturkeyranch.
Here's the link I use to look up everything:

Your first post, on 8/27 had a couple responses with several links to helpful websites and posts. Did none of that help?

Wish I could help, but I don't have turkeys.

Most of the time, folks just don't have the answers for you. I have never had turkeys, but my policy is to cull for all respiratory illness, which may not be what you want to hear.

try posting under the turkey forum ---> https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewforum.php?id=20
they might be able to help you out

it is a respiratory illness
i don't know much about turkeys so i don't know what to tell you
i don't think you should cull just yet though...

I used injectable Tylan for turkeys with those symptoms. Good luck.
