Question

I'm really worried because the patient just got over COVID about five days ago. I'm trying to find out if they also recovered from COVID pneumonia or if there's still something lingering. Can you help explain how we can know for sure if they're in the clear?

Question

I've been dealing with asthma for about 2 years now and recently I've started feeling chest and back pain when I take a deep breath. It's strange because I'm not having any other symptoms and my treatment seems to be going well. I even had a chest x-ray and it didn't show anything unusual. I just can't figure out why this pain happens with deep breaths. Any ideas on what could be causing this?

Question

I've been dealing with some lung issues and recently had surgery on my nose. I used to take Seretra 80mg for my asthma, but now my ENT doctor has prescribed Montek LC for allergies. Is it alright to take both Seretra 80mg and Montek LC at the same time? I'm just a bit worried about mixing the medications.

Question

Can you help me figure out if there's blood in my sputum? I noticed something orange in it and I'm worried about what it might mean.
