I got my second dose of Covishield on September 1st, 2021, and I have a provisional diagnosis of COPD. My doctor recommended I use a Triohale inhaler and a Duolin inhaler. Is it safe for me to continue using these inhalers right now, or should I wait a bit before starting them?

My spouse has had a dry cough for the past two months. It's not constant or really severe, but it's been lingering for a while now. It all started with a fever and wet cough for two days, but now it's just a dry cough. He's been on medication for a week, and although its improved a bit, it hasn't completely gone away. Oddly enough, he sometimes starts coughing after drinking water. I'm really hoping to find a permanent solution to this. Could you help us figure out what might be going on?

I'm supposed to be going to Dubai for work, but my medical report showed a calcification in the area near my right hilum during the chest X-ray. I'm really worried because if I'm deemed medically unfit, I can't take the job. I'm not having any chest pain at all, but I do smoke, so could this be from my smoking habit? How can I get rid of this calcification quickly? Would this affect my chances for the job in Dubai?

My foot and abdomen are swollen, and I've been struggling to urinate for the last four days. My oxygen level is at 88 and my pulse rate is 120. What could be going on? Should I be concerned?
