I'm dealing with asthma and I'm worried because whenever I start walking, this pressure begins to build up in my throat, which makes me stop. Along with that, there's this chest tightness and throat pressure that starts to increase the more I walk. Could this be related to asthma, even though I don't have a history of smoking or other illnesses like diabetes or hypertension? I've attached the documents I'm using my inhaler as needed, which is a Firacot 200, but I'm not sure what else I should do to stop these symptoms. Any advice?

View allI'm sending over my reports and really need your opinion. I've been dealing with a mild fever, like 99.5 in the evenings, and a persistent cough for the last 23 months. I haven't lost my appetite or anything, but the symptoms started when I was in Italy and continued after I returned to India. The doctor initially gave me AKT4, but it seemed to make things worsemy fever went up to 101.7 and my coughing increased. After two weeks, they switched my medication to AKURIT 4, with five tablets a day since I weigh 77 kg. It's been nine days on the new meds, and now my fever is around 99 to 99.5 degrees in the evening for a couple of hours, and the coughing has reduced. I'm just not sure if I'm on the right track here. Is it really tuberculosis, and how long should I expect the fever to last? I'm pretty anxious about this.
right treatment continue same

I'm really anxious about my mom's recent chest pain. The doctor suggested a CT scan, and the report mentions something about alveolo fibrotic opacity in her left upper lobe and the superior segment of her right lower lobe. It also noted no pleural effusion thickening. Could you explain what all this means? I'm really worried about her.
Probable differential diagnosis include sarcoidosis,Silicosis,Langerhans cell histiocytosis,and pneumoconioses.etc , pulmonologist opinion is advised for further management.

I'm a 20-year-old female dealing with active pulmonary tuberculosis, and I've been on treatment for about 1.5 months now. The doctor said my x-ray shows that 70% of my lung is damaged, and there are large cavities. I'm having severe white-colored cough that just won't quit, and I'm exhausted all the timeI can't even stand without feeling the need to sit down. Any exercise or even short walks wipe me out completely. Given that I've been on medication for a while now, shouldn't the severe cough have improved by now? Is there any chance my lungs can heal and return to their previous state without cavities? And this tirednesscould it be a side effect of the anti-tuberculosis medicine I'm on?
yes your tiredness us because of tuberculosis medicine, take highly nutritious food. after proper treatment your lungs will become normal
