Question

I'm a bit worried about my mom's medication after she was discharged from the hospital. She's been prescribed Duolin 2.5 ml TDS and Flohale 2.5 ml BD for nebulization. I'm not sure if I should be mixing them together for her treatment, or if they need to be nebulized separately. Can you help clarify this for me?

Question

I've been struggling with a stuffed nose and trouble breathing for the past month, plus some chest pain for the last two weeks. I've seen a few doctors and tried medications for acidity, but nothing seems to help. I'm really anxious about whether this could be COVID-19, and I'm having trouble sleeping at night because of it. What could be going on?

I'm really worried about my dad who's 71. He's been in the hospital for 8 days due to some respiratory problems and was found to have a lower respiratory tract infection.

And how long do you think it might take for him to recover?
