It's generally safe to take Dolo 650 for fever during tuberculosis treatment, but it's important to follow your doctor's advice for specific medications and dosage. The duration of fever can vary depending on the severity of the infection and how your body responds to treatment. If the fever persists, it's a good idea to consult your doctor for further evaluation.

Question

My dad's oxygen levels keep going up and down between 94 and 97. It seems to drop lower after he eats dinner, but its usually higher around noon. He has asthma. I'm really worried and I'm wondering what we can do to help increase his oxygen levels. Would you advise taking steam or doing yoga exercises like Anulom Vilom given that he uses a nebulizer, though he doesnt always use it regularly? Any suggestions would be great!

Question

I'm really concerned about my TB treatment. I've been on the medicine for 45 days now. I recently did a CT scan a couple of days ago, and I attached the new report with the old one. Can you tell if there's any improvement? Also, since I've been diagnosed with TB after the CT scan and bronchoscopy, I'm wondering if it's safe for me to travel abroad. Could you help me out with this?

Question

I'm 23 and dealing with tuberculosis, and I'm on medication for it. But lately, I've developed pulmonary fibrosis, and I'm super concerned about what's next. Is there any way to treat or even cure pulmonary fibrosis? My doctor mentioned it's irreversible but suggested that maybe it's not so bad since I'm young. Is it true that being young might help with managing this? I've read that people with pulmonary fibrosis might only live up to 35 yearsthat's really worrying me. Is there hope or treatment options out there?
