Question 1

I'm really worried about my son. He caught a cold back in January 2014 and then started coughing a lot, having trouble breathing too. A doctor prescribed budate 200 rotacap, which he used for two years. After that, everything seemed fine for about eight months, but then the symptoms returned in December. So we saw another doctor who gave him a Levolin inhaler. We've now consulted a pulmonologist who has prescribed formonide 100, deriphyllin od 300, and montair lc kid. How long do you think he should keep taking these medicines?

Accepted Answer

Continue formonide inhaler sos for breathing difficulty.

Question 2

I've been dealing with some breathing issues for about a week now, and I'm starting to get really worried. There's this constant noise when I breathe out, and I've been coughing up thick white mucus. It's getting really uncomfortable. Could this excessive mucus production be something serious? And what can I do about it? Would love to hear your thoughts.

Question 3

My mom is 65 and she's been dealing with a really bad cough for the past two months. We got an x-ray done, and the doctor said we need to do a CT scan. They found a nodule about 6.7mm by 6.2mm in the upper lobe of her right lung. It's non-calcified, and I'm really worried. Does this mean there's a high chance it could be cancer, or could it be something like bronchitis or pneumonia instead?

Accepted Answer

need to check report and do analysis to confirm

I'm a bit concerned because I've had this cough for about 10 days now. It switches between being dry and wet, and recently, I've started having some abdominal pain when I cough. Could this be something serious? What should I do about it?
