I'm having trouble breathing and can't seem to get air through my nose for a while now, so I've been breathing through my mouth instead. But lately, even that's becoming tough and I feel like I have to take big breaths just to get enough oxygen. What's going on with this?

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 21-year-old girl and I've been prescribed a Levolin inhaler for my asthma treatment. I'm wondering how it compares to the Asthalin inhaler and what makes Levolin a better choice for me. Could you help explain the differences?

Levolin (levosalbutamol) inhaler is considered better than Asthalin (salbutamol) inhaler for some patients because levosalbutamol is the active R-enantiomer of salbutamol, which provides more targeted and effective bronchodilation with potentially fewer side effects, making it a preferred option for asthma management.

I'm having this issue where I keep needing to clear my throat, and sometimes in the morning, there's this black stuff in my sputum. A doctor once told me to take Montair FX daily for 20 days. I only took it for six days because I felt better and stopped, but now the problem is back. Should I start taking Montair FX again, and if so, for how long this time?

It's best to follow your doctor's advice and complete the full 20-day course of Montair FX, even if you're feeling better. If you're experiencing the same symptoms again, you can start the medicine again, but it's important to consult your doctor to confirm the duration and ensure proper treatment.
