I'm 27 now and when I was just 6 months old, I had TB and went through a 9-month antibiotic treatment and got better. But now I'm really worried that the TB might come back. Do you think it's possible for TB to reoccur after all these years? Any advice would be really helpful.

View allI'm really worried about my 16-year-old brother. He's been having this sharp pain in his chest whenever he takes a deep breath, and it's been going on for a couple of months. We initially thought it might be because of junk food, but he's actually stopped eating it for about 8 months now. I'm trying to figure out what could be causing this pain when he breathes deeply. Could it be something serious? What should we do about it?
do chest xray and proceed further

I'm 27, weigh 72kg, and have a bit of a belly. Could this be why I'm having trouble breathing, even when I'm just sitting? It's definitely different from how I felt before I had the belly.
Yes, excess belly fat can sometimes put pressure on your diaphragm, which may lead to breathing difficulties, even while sitting. It can restrict lung expansion and make breathing feel more labored.

I've been having this breathlessness issue for a while now. It's strange because I don't have asthma and my blood pressure is normal. The doctor did some kind of small lung test using this tiny machine on my finger, and that came out normal too. But I keep getting this really frequent cough and have problems with acidity. Could they be related? I'm wondering if this is something serious. What's your take on it?
While your symptoms might not necessarily indicate something major, it's important to address them proactively. GERD, post-nasal drip, or even stress could be contributing to your symptoms. If the symptoms persist or worsen, consult your doctor for further evaluation to rule out other conditions
