I'm really concerned about my health after having TB about a year ago. There was water collected around my lungs which was drained during treatment, around 2500 ml in total. My treatment started on May 31, 2016, and ended on April 10, 2017. Now I've noticed that there's a thin and dry layer around my left lung. My doctor said the treatment is complete, but I'm worried about this layer. Can you please advise me on what I should do next?

View allI'm dealing with a lung infection because of the climate here in Delhi. My doctor suggested taking TelekastL and Sereflo. I'm just a bit concerned about using TelekastL for a long period. Is it really safe? And should I be reconsidering living in Delhi if this is causing health issues? I'd really appreciate some insight into this.
Telekast-L (montelukast and levocetirizine) is generally safe for long-term use under medical supervision, but it may not address the root cause of a recurring lung infection. If Delhi's air quality consistently worsens your health, it may be worth considering relocating to a cleaner environment for long-term well-being.

I've been having trouble breathing at night lately. It only seems to happen when I'm trying to sleep, never during the daytime. I've also noticed it gets worse when the weather is cold. It's starting to really worry me, and I just can't figure out why this is happening. Any ideas on what could be causing this?
it might be asthma, consult a pulmonologist for further tests

I'm a bit worried about my mom's medication after she was discharged from the hospital. She's been prescribed Duolin 2.5 ml TDS and Flohale 2.5 ml BD for nebulization. I'm not sure if I should be mixing them together for her treatment, or if they need to be nebulized separately. Can you help clarify this for me?
Duolin and Flohale should be given separately when nebulizing. Duolin is usually taken three times a day (TDS), while Flohale is taken twice a day (BDS). Ensure theres a gap of at least 10 minutes between the two medications to avoid any interaction. Always follow your doctors advice for the best results.
