I'm curious about something... After finishing the treatment for tuberculosis, are there any marks left on the lungs? Could these marks cause any problems in the future? Is it possible to live a normal life with these marks on the lungs? Also, what are some ways to take care if there are marks left on the lungs?

I've been dealing with a blocked nose that suddenly turned runny, but what's really worrying me is this constant need to yawn or take deep breaths. This started just yesterday. I'm 19 years old and weigh 95 kgs. Should I be concerned about these symptoms? What could be causing this breathing issue?

That could be regular flu,no need to worry take citrizine tablet once in the night time and take steam inhalation,if its becoming worse visit ENT doctor for appropriate management

I've noticed some blood in my sputum, but I don't have any pain in my throat or chest. What could be causing this?

Coughing up blood, also known as hemoptysis, can be caused by several factors such as an infection, bronchitis, or even nasal bleeding. If there's no pain in your throat or chest, it could be due to mild irritation or inflammation in the airways. However, it's important to get it checked by a doctor to rule out any serious conditions.

My dad's been dealing with this really thick white phlegm and a cough every day after he got over bronchitis a few days ago. Before, the phlegm was yellowish for about 5 or 6 days, and now it's just super thick and white. Do you think this will clear up soon? It bothers him a lot, especially because he constantly feels like he has to clear his throat when he talks. He's not running a fever or anything, and he's breathing fine. It's just this cough and phlegm that's driving him nuts. What do you think we should do?
