Question

I'm really worried about bronchitis and I'm trying to understand the different sounds a doctor would hear through a stethoscope, like ronchi, wheezing, or crackles. Could you explain what these sounds mean and how they're related to bronchitis? Would be really great if you could help me out with this.

Question

I'm currently working at a thermal power plant where I'm regularly exposed to a lot of dust. During the summer, I experience some mild breathing issues, but it gets worse in the winter when my nostrils and chest feel completely blocked. Do you have any suggestions for managing or preventing this?

Question

I'm really worried. I've been having a constant temperature between 99.2 and 99.6 for over a month and a half now. We did all the tests like blood and urine cultures and they came back negative. I've taken the usual antibiotics but they didn't help. My doctor suggested a chest CT and now there's a suspicion of TB. He mentioned getting a TB test, but I don't have any cough or cold, so we can't do a sputum test. Could you take a look at the CT scan and let me know if it really looks like TB? Also, are there any other confirmatory tests we can do for TB apart from the sputum test?

Question

I'm dealing with a bad cold and cough and I've heard nebulization might help. Could you let me know which medications are effective for quick relief from these symptoms?
