I'm having this odd itching sensation in my left lung, just above my abdomen area. It's not there all the time, but when it hits, it really bothers me. There's nothing else going on symptom-wise that I've noticed. Could this be something I should worry about? What's possibly causing it?

View allI'm trying to figure out the difference between an MDI inhaler and an MDI transhaler. I know transhalers are used with transpacers, but is there anything else that sets them apart? Like, are there differences in how they work, how effective they are, or even side effects? I'd love to get some insight on this.
Transhalers are easy,and delivery of the drug is much assured.if you have good hand, mouth co ordination, Mdi are also good.if you do not have good co ordination, transhalers are best.

I'm really worried about my sister's chest X-ray results. It mentioned everything was normal except it said the right hilar shadows are heavy and show nodularity, linked to lymphadenopathy. I'm pretty anxious and just need to know if this is something that only happens to people with HIV or could it be something else?
The finding of "right hilar shadows heavy with nodularity, suggestive of lymphadenopathy," is not specific to HIV infection. It can occur in various conditions, including infections, inflammatory diseases, or even cancers. Further investigation, such as clinical assessment and additional tests, is needed to determine the exact cause.

The pus from my cervical TB infection was drained but the lump hasn't gone away yet. The lab confirmed it's tuberculosis and I'm on FORECOX (Isoniazid, Pyrazinamide, Ethambutol) twice daily. Should I get any other tests done to check if the treatment is working or if there's more going on
It's important to monitor the progress of your cervical TB treatment and the lymph node after draining the pus. While the drug regimen you're on (FORECOX) is effective, additional tests may be needed to confirm the effectiveness of the treatment and rule out any other potential complications.
