Question

My mom is dealing with Bronchial Asthma and I'm really worried. She recently had surgery to remove air from her lungs, but there's still some left according to the X-ray. She's a bit overweight and tries to walk every day, but she gets breathless after just a few steps. Can you suggest what might help her with this?

Question

I've been dealing with bronchitis and it's really getting to me. Every time I see a doctor, it seems to help a little but then in just a week, I'm back to having a cough and feeling breathless again. It's really taking a toll on me. What could be causing these recurring symptoms? Is there something else I should be doing or asking my doctor about?

Question

I recently got a chest X-ray, and it showed increased broncho vascular markings near the para cardiac and para hilar areas. I'm worried if this could be related to TB. Are these markings like scars on the lungs or something else?

Question

I've been dealing with a cough for about a year now, and there's also been daily congestion. The mucus is relentless, and it seems to worsen with exposure to dust, and after eating things like curds or oily foods. I'm getting concerned about what's causing this and how to manage it. Could you give me some advice or potential solutions?
