I'm having this really bothersome dry cough, and it seems to get worse when I'm under a ceiling fan or in an air-conditioned room. I don't notice it as much when the room temperature is normal though. Also, the mucus I cough up is white. Could it be something to do with excess heat in my body? I'm worried and would love any suggestions on what kind of medicines might help with this.

View allI'm an asthma patient and I've been taking medicines like Montek LC and Seraflow 250mg rotocaps. I started this routine because of frequent asthma attacks since October 2014. Initially, I took them every day for three months, but then moved to only taking them when an attack happens. Lately, I've been having other issues like significant belly swelling, lots of gas, breathing problems, and constipation. Could you please help me understand these symptoms and suggest what I should do?

I'm really worried about this chest congestion I've had for the past 34 days, along with a dry cough. It started with wheezing, a bad backache, and shortness of breath, so I took the meds my doc prescribed, Lcin 500 and doxovent 400, and I've been nebulizing myself too. The symptoms are a bit better but the cough is still hanging around. This same thing happened to me 1.5 years ago during the winter. Is it just the cold weather causing this, or could it be something more serious like asthma? I got really scared after googling these symptoms. Does having wheezing and a dry cough definitely mean it's asthma?
no asthma is not severe

Every time I breathe in, I feel this pinching pain in my lung area, and it's bothering me in both my chest and back. I've tried stretching and moving around, but it just doesn't seem to help. Could you give me some insight into what's going on?
Considerations for Angioplasty in an 87-Year-Old Grandma _Procedure Risks and Benefits_ 1. *Risks*: Angioplasty carries risks, especially in elderly patients, such as bleeding, kidney damage, and stroke. 2. *Benefits*: Successful angioplasty can improve heart function, reduce symptoms, and enhance quality of life. _Factors to Consider_ 1. *Age and frailty*: At 87, your grandma's age and potential frailty may increase the risks associated with angioplasty. 2. *Weakened heart*: Her heart's reduced function may impact her ability to tolerate the procedure. 3. *Successful treatment of pulmonary edema*: The fact that lasix treatment was successful is a positive indicator. _Recommended Approach_ 1. *Consult a cardiologist*: Discuss the risks and benefits of angioplasty with a cardiologist, considering your grandma's specific condition and medical history. 2. *Assess overall health*: Evaluate her overall health, including her kidney function, bleeding risk, and ability to tolerate the procedure. 3. *Consider alternative options*: If angioplasty is deemed too risky, discuss alternative treatments, such as medication or cardiac rehabilitation.
