Question

I'm reaching out because I've been having some troubles and could really use some advice. I don't have a cough at all, but I've been putting a lot of effort into trying to bring up sputum, and thankfully, I've never seen blood in it. I'm not a smoker, but I do experience acidity problems. After taking Theo-Asthalin tablets for the past three days, I'm now feeling a heaviness in my chest. Could you help me understand what's going on and suggest what might be helpful for me?

Question

I'm really concerned because I took a hard fall in the bathroom and slammed my chest on a tap. It's been about 34 days now and the chest pain hasn't gone away. I did a chest X-ray, and I'm worried if there's anything wrong with it. Could there be a chance of pneumothorax? Also, I have to fly tomorrow and I'm not sure if it's safe to fly with this kind of pain. What do you think?

How can I check my lungs at home?

Question

I'm really worried because my recent medical checkup in a Saudi clinic showed some upper lobe fibrotic lesions in my X-ray. They said I'm unfit because of this, and when I asked the doctor, they mentioned it might be due to old tuberculosis, showing up as fibrosis. I'm confused and a bit scaredcan something like this be treated or removed? What's the best way to go about this?
