I got diagnosed with Pneumonia after catching the Covid19 virus last April 14, 2021. I've been on medication for weeks and started feeling better. But now, whenever I take a deep breath, I notice some discomfort and a bit of pain in the right side of my chest, near the lower rib cage. I work night shifts and this is starting to worry me because it's impacting my job. Could this still be related to what I went through with Pneumonia, or something else?

I've been on my TB meds for nearly two weeks now, and recently I've started having really bad coughing fits, especially when I'm lying down. This wasn't happening before I started the treatment. Do you have any idea what might be causing this?

I've been feeling a bit worried lately. I got back to my hometown from Pune on March 11th and I've been really careful, keeping my distance from people and not going out since March 20th. But on the night of March 29th, around 11 PM, I started coughing. It's been a couple of days now and the cough isn't getting worse or better, just staying the same. Sometimes I feel like I need to take a deep breath, but it usually passes after a few seconds. Do you think I might have coronavirus?

I'm a 21-year-old girl and I've been prescribed a Levolin inhaler for my asthma treatment. I'm wondering how it compares to the Asthalin inhaler and what makes Levolin a better choice for me. Could you help explain the differences?

Levolin (levosalbutamol) inhaler is considered better than Asthalin (salbutamol) inhaler for some patients because levosalbutamol is the active R-enantiomer of salbutamol, which provides more targeted and effective bronchodilation with potentially fewer side effects, making it a preferred option for asthma management.
