I'm really struggling with my breathing the last couple of days. It feels heavy and I'm breathing super fast, plus I'm yawning all the time. My heart's been racing too, and it's making me so anxious. My nose is clear and my hemoglobin's normal, so I'm at a loss about what's going on. I'm constantly worrying about my breathing now and focusing on it just seems to make it worse. Any idea what this could be? It's really stressing me out.

View allI'm a bit anxious after having been on AKT3 for 4 months since May 8, 2017. I'm really hoping to hear that this treatment has worked and the TB is gone for good. How will I know if my body is free from TB now? Are there any specific signs or tests that can confirm it's completely eliminated?
Possible Diagnosis* 1. *Epididymitis*: Inflammation of the epididymis, a tube behind the testicle that stores sperm. Masturbation can cause minor trauma, leading to inflammation. 2. *Testicular strain*: Overstretching or minor injury to the testicular tissues, possibly due to masturbation or tight clothing. *Treatment Advice* 1. *Rest and relaxation*: Avoid strenuous activities, tight clothing, and prolonged sitting. 2. *Cold compress*: Apply a cold compress to the affected area to reduce pain and inflammation. 3. *Pain relief*: Take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil) as directed. 4. *Elevate the scrotum*: When sitting or lying down, elevate the scrotum to reduce swelling and discomfort. 5. *Practice good hygiene*: Keep the genital area clean and dry to prevent infection. 6. *Avoid masturbation*: Refrain from masturbation for a few weeks to allow the affected area to heal. *When to Seek Medical Attention* 1. *Severe pain*: If the pain becomes unbearable or is accompanied by vomiting, fever, or chills. 2. *Swelling or redness*: If the scrotum becomes severely swollen, red, or warm to the touch. 3. *Discharge or bleeding*: If you notice unusual discharge or bleeding from the penis or scrotum. 4. *Fever*: If you experience a fever over 101.5F (38.6C).

I'm really concerned about my sister who's been in treatment for pulmonary tuberculosis for a bit now. Her recent x-ray showed 45% damage on her right lung and 15% on the left one. These numbers worry me, and I'm unsure if this is a serious issue. The doctors mentioned lung cavities. Does this mean shes in a risky situation? Also, shes able to sit and walk but gets tired quickly when walking for too long. Shes only 20 years old. Is there any possibility that her lungs can heal and return to their original state? I'm wondering if the damage can be reversed since she's still young.
yes there are chances it can become normal. it takes sometime after completion of treatment

I've been dealing with this issue where I cough up phlegm every morning, and it's been flaring up again after I caught COVID. This was under control before I got sick, but now it's back again. Especially after I eat, it feels like it gets worse. Do you have any advice on how I can manage this?
Tab azithromycin 500mg,orally,once daily for 3 days is advised to the patient.
