Can I still use my asthma inhaler with formoterol and budesonide 320mg9ug after getting my vaccine? It's been three days since the shot and I'm just wondering if it's safe.

What can we do to help my dad feel better? He's 57, retired, and usually manages his asthma well without meds, but recently he had a flare-up after cleaning the house. He's been using an Asthalin inhaler a bit more, but now on the fourth day, he still wheezes when breathing in and out and seems a bit uncomfortable. Any advice on what could help his symptoms?

kindly continue the treatment,it takes time to relive symptoms

I'm a bit worried because I've had pleural effusion in my right lung and got it tapped. I've been on treatment for it since May, starting with AKT4 for the first two months and then switching to AKT2 for the next four. It's been four months now, but I still feel a sharp pain in my right lung when I sneeze, hiccup, or yawn. Is this something I should be concerned about? Also, I haven't lost any weight; in fact, I've gained 5 kg since May and weigh 61 kg now. Any advice on what might be going on?

Tab pan d orally for 5 days,before food and syrup sucralfate 10ml thrice daily for 5 days is advised to the patient. It is normal adverse effects during ATT therapy.

I'm really concerned because I've been dealing with a cough for the past 23 months. I've seen a few doctors, but nothing seems to be improving. It's really frustrating. Can you tell me what might be going on or suggest what I should try next?
