Question

I'm really worried because I feel like there's water in my lungs. It's leading to really bad chest pain and pain in my lung area. I'm also finding it really hard to breathe. Could this be something serious? What can I do about it?

Question

I'm worried about my situation. I had bronchitis three years ago and have been using an inhaled corticosteroid and fexofenadine regularly since then. But even with that, my doctor can still hear rhonchi through the stethoscope. Is there any way to completely get rid of the inflammation in my bronchi and stop the rhonchi sounds? Its even worse if I stop using the inhaler. What can I do?

Question

I'm really worried about my lungs. I had basal pneumonia with findings of hyperinflated lungs and some hazy densities in the right lower lung. Ive been on cefpodoxime 200mg twice a day for 10 days. My doctor said in the follow-up that the pneumonia is resolved, but Im still concerned. Does this mean my lungs are back to normal, or should I be worried about any lingering effects?

Question

So Ive been checking my oxygen levels with an oximeter and it seems to start at 96 but then drops to 88 within just a couple of minutes. Im not showing any symptoms and I havent tested positive for COVID. Should I be worried about this or could it just be that the oximeter isnt working right?
