View allI'm concerned about my mom's health. She's been diagnosed with bronchitis and the doctor has prescribed her budecort 200 rotocap capsules. I'm wondering if it's safe for her to continue taking these capsules. Could there be any potential side effects or interactions we should be aware of? Would appreciate your insight.

I recently had an x-ray done and it showed a scar on my lungs. The report mentioned it's an old TB scar that's not currently active. Is there any treatment or medicine available to help get rid of this scar and have a clear lung x-ray? Also, I'm trying to understand the PPD test better. If there's swelling in my arm with a red area around the injection site but no noticeable bump, would that be considered a positive result?
U cannot remove old TB scar from chest xray.

I'm dealing with a blocked nose and a cough that I've had for a few days, but now I'm noticing some blood in my cough. Should I be concerned about this, and what type of doctor should I see?
It could be due to various reasons such as a respiratory infection, bronchitis, or even more serious conditions like pneumonia or tuberculosis. I recommend you to consult a Pulmonologist for further evaluation and management.
