Question 1

I've been having some breathing issues for the past couple of years and it started when I was told I had a deviated septum. I even had surgery, but it didn't really help. The doctors back then suggested it might just be in my head. So I went to a chest specialist, and they mentioned it could be an allergy or mild allergic asthma. They put me on VilorF, but my breathing issues haven't gone away, especially when I'm sleeping. I can't lie on my right side or on my back, only on one side, which is tough. They also added Pantosec D to my routine, which I've been taking each morning on an empty stomach for 6 months now.

Thing is, I've come down with a fever and had a really bad cough for a couple of days, and though the fever's gone, I'm struggling again with breathing since last evening. There's a kind of tightness in my chest and it's been really tough. I took the salbutamol inhaler once this morning, but I'm not sure what I should do next. Could this be related to the asthma or something else? Any advice would be super helpful.

Accepted Answer

continue salbutamol inhaler for 5 days and tablet dolo 650 mg for 3 days

Question 2

I've been noticing a hissing sound when I inhale, and honestly, it's been happening on and off for about 15 years now. Lately though, like for the last 6 months, it's been popping up way more, like every few days. It's especially noticeable in cooler weather or if I'm around dust, sneezing, laughing really hard, or even when I'm climbing up hills or stairs like to the third floor. It's starting to worry me, and I'm not sure what's going on. Could you give me some guidance on what might be causing this?

Question 3

I've been noticing a weird sound coming from my lungs every time I breathe. It's really thin, and sometimes I have a cough too. Whenever I work hard, I get short of breath. I haven't had any chest pain or noticed any blood, but the sound in my breath and the shortness of breath are concerning. What do you think might be going on?

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you may be experiencing mild respiratory issues, such as wheezing or reactive airways, which can cause shortness of breath and a dry cough, especially with physical exertion. I recommend seeing a doctor to assess your lung function and rule out conditions like asthma or other respiratory concerns.

I'm having a tough time with allergic rhinitis and bronchitis and it's been going on for a while. Lately, I've noticed shallow breathing and that wheezing sound is a real concern. The cough is driving me crazy, it's been three weeks now. Could you tell me which specialist I should see for this?
