I'm having some breathing issues, and I've noticed blood coming from my nose and mouth. The doctor mentioned a bronchoscopy. Could you explain what a bronchoscopy is? Also, are there any specific blood tests related to lung issues that I should know about?

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

I'm really worried about my dad. His CT scan just showed that he has right-sided pleural effusion with a solid component, and there's something about subsegmental collapse consolidation. Could these findings mean he might have developed some kind of malignancy? I'm not sure what to think and could really use some guidance.

No we can't tell only on CT reports

I'm a bit worried because I had a chest X-ray on May 20, which was all clear. But then another X-ray on July 1 showed tenting of the left hemi diaphragm. Can someone explain what this means and if I should be concerned? I was COVID positive on April 9, and I haven't been vaccinated yet. Plus, my heart rate is pretty high, and I'm experiencing chest pain. What should I do next?
