Question

I'm dealing with acute bronchitis pretty often. It usually kicks off with a sore throat and then escalates to bronchitis, complete with mucus buildup in my chest and all that. I typically skip medication and just let it run its course, which takes about a week or two. I'm really wondering if this could be harming my lungs, though. Should I be considering medication instead?

Question

I'm an asthmatic and I've been waking up every night 2 to 3 times to use my asthalin inhaler for the last 10 years. I also use it 2 to 3 times during the day. But when there's a sudden change in the climate at night, I take montek lc and notice that the next day I don't need the inhaler at all. I'm wondering if I can use montek lc every day instead of the inhaler. Which one would be the better option for me?

Question

I'm a bit worried because my x-ray results show I have a lung nodule. I'm applying to be a public teacher, and I don't have any pain or issues in my lung area, and I rarely cough. From what I know, a nodule isn't a communicable disease, so do you think I can still get a fit-to-work clearance?
