I'm really concerned because I've been dealing with a persistent cough and my asthma isn't getting any better. Do you think it's safe for me to take L hist mont along with amoxicillin 500? I'm worried about how these might interact.

If you have asthma and are experiencing a cough, it's important to ensure that your asthma is well-managed. L-Hist-Mont (a combination of antihistamine and montelukast) can help with allergic symptoms and asthma, while amoxicillin is used for bacterial infections. If your cough is due to an infection, the amoxicillin may be helpful, but its best to consult your doctor to confirm the cause and ensure the medications are appropriate for your condition.

My grandpa's been having a tough time with a serious mucus issue lately. It's like every day he's struggling to spit it out. And recently, the coughing and spitting seem to have ramped up even more. He's on some meds and using a pof blower, but it's not really doing the trick. Do you have any idea what might help?

I've been a bit worried about something. Back in April 2021, when I had Covid, I had an HRCT scan, and they found a small, ill-defined nodule in the superior segment of my right lower lung lobe. I'm 33 and wondering if maybe I should get another HRCT scan soon or wait a bit to check on whats going on with it. What do you recommend?

yes do one more hrct scan.

I've been feeling really unwell since May. It started with mild pain in the upper center of my chest, then turned into a high fever. By the 17th, I lost my taste and smell. Soon after, I noticed mild chest pain right in the center along with shortness of breath, but these weren't everyday occurrences. Strangely enough, these symptoms appeared again about 34 days later, and now they're back from June 23. This time, the pain has shifted a bit to the left and I'm having trouble breathing. Is this something serious? Could you please give me some advice?
