I'm experiencing this pain on the backside when I take deep breaths, and it's also there, but milder, when I breathe normally. It's been going on for a while, and I'm not sure what it could mean. Should I be worried about this, or is it something that usually goes away on its own? What might be causing it?

It sounds like you may be experiencing muscle strain or inflammation in the ribcage or intercostal muscles, which can cause pain during deep breathing. However, it's important to rule out any underlying conditions, such as lung or kidney issues. I recommend seeing a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation.

I'm really worried about my mom. She had an X-ray done because of a recommendation from a clinic doctor, and the report mentioned something like haziness in the right middle and lower lung zones, possibly pneumonitis. When we took the report back to the same doctor, she said it's TB and gave us a prescription, including something called AKT FD KIT for 30 days, Prohance powder to take twice with milk, and Becosules for a month. I'm just not sure if we should start this 6-month treatment right away. Do you think it's a good idea to get a second opinion before starting the medication? What do you advise?

Advised sputum for AFB ,microscopy and CBNAAT study for the confimation.If positive ATT is advised for 6 months duration.

I'm dealing with hereditary asthma and usually manage ok with my inhaler a few times a week, especially when it's cold. But right now, I'm wondering if there's a mild nebulizer solution that would help. Is Duolin enough for this, or should I consider trying Foracort? I'd really appreciate any advice.

without consult don't use nebulizer by your own

I've been dealing with COPD and I'm currently on MontekAB, Esiflo250, and Tiate inhaler. I tested negative for COVID on June 5th, but lately I've had a runny nose and sneezing a lot. After taking Sinarest three times a day, the sneezing stopped, but then I started coughing. It feels like there's something stuck in my chest and my oxygen level has dropped to 90. I'm really worried and could use some advice. What should I do next?

Continue same treatment.
