I'm currently using an Asthalin inhaler for my asthma, but I'm wondering if there's a better alternative out there. I really want to manage my asthma more effectively. Do you know of any inhalers that might work better or offer improved management?

Only asthalin is used only in a very mild form of asthma. If the asthma is not controlled on asthalin only, you may have to use other inhalers. It is best that you show a chest physician who can examine and prescribe you appropriate inhaler.

I'm kind of worried about my chest and I'd like some advice. My CT scan showed a subtle thin fibrotic band in the lateral segment of the right middle lobe, and they mentioned something about Corads3 being indeterminate for COVID infection, and the score was 01 out of 25. Does this mean its serious? I've been feeling heaviness and pain in the middle of my chest for the last 2 to 3 months. I'm anxious because my X-rays and all my other tests like blood work, ECG, endoscopy, and more came back normal. Ive been dealing with anxiety for about six months too. Could the CT findings be something to worry about?

I was in the hospital two months ago because of COVID, which led to COVID lung pneumonia. I've attached an X-ray taken two months after I was discharged. Can you tell me if I should have another CT scan or not?

Please take a look at my X-ray and ultrasound reports. I've had a cough for 25 days now, with episodes of coughing so hard that I vomit, which has happened about 90 times. The coughing only happens once or twice a day, but it can go on for around 35 minutes each time. I also have mild to moderate pain in my abdomen and chest. My weight has dropped from 78 to 65 over the past three months. Initially, I was told I had malaria, but the test was positive one day and negative the next, so I'm not sure about that. What do you think could be causing the cough and vomiting?

might be lung infection, take syrup ascoril twice a day for 1 week
