I have early small airway obstruction. Spirometry shows severe restriction with FVC percentage less than 45 and FEV1 divided by FVC percentage greater than 70. I have also taken an HRCT chest, which is normal. I have attached my report. Please help me with this?

If spirometry shows FVC less than 45 percent and HRCT is normal, early small airway obstruction like asthma or post infective airway changes could be the cause. Discuss inhaler therapy and repeat spirometry after a few weeks.

My nephew has been developing sudden redness and water filled blisters on his legs and hands, which resolve on their own within a few days. His blood reports appear normal, and we have consulted multiple dermatologists, but none have been able to identify the root cause of these recurring blisters. I have attached images for reference. Could you please review them and share any insights or suggestions you may have? Thank you in advance.

I am allergic to many things like dust and strong smell. What is the cough allergy test? Should I also get it done? I am 32 years old working as a HR in an MNC. Is it worth doing this allergy test? Can I get a permanent solution for this cough allergy?
