I'm really worried about my Bronco pneumonia. I've had it since I was a kid, and I've heard different things from different doctors. Some say it's due to allergies and might get better with time, while others feel the weather where I live isnt right for me. I even moved to see if that would help, but I'm still having asthma problems. Anytime I get a little cold, the coughing starts and my asthma flares up. I've been using Asthalin to manage it. Do I have to live with this for the rest of my life? Is there anything else I could try or look into?

View allI'm dealing with bronchial asthma and have been using Foracort 400 daily. I'm worried though, are there any potential problems or side effects from using it every day? I'd really appreciate some advice on this.
Foracort 400 is generally safe for managing bronchial asthma if used as prescribed by your doctor. Long-term use may cause side effects like oral thrush, hoarseness, or mild systemic effects, so regular check-ups are essential. Always rinse your mouth after use to minimize side effects.

I'm dealing with some breathing issues, like shortness of breath, and it's been more than 10 years. I've gone to various doctors, and they said it's allergies. So, I went to see a pulmonologist. They suggested I do FENO and PFT tests. My FENO result came back as 19 ppb, and PFT was normal. They gave me a Foracart 200 inhaler and some meds for allergies, but it's been five days and I haven't noticed a difference. Should I be worried, or could this take more time? What should I do next?

I'm a bit confused about my medication. I had COVID about a month ago and ended up in the ICU with severe pneumonia for 12 days. Thankfully, I'm home now and feeling healthier, but still having trouble breathing, especially when walking or exercising. My oxygen saturation is around 95-96. My doctor put me on pirfenidone 200 mg, twice a day, and also Foracort 200, twice a day. But I thought pirfenidone was for idiopathic lung fibrosis. Does this mean I might have fibrosis, or is there another reason for prescribing it? I'm really worried about this and would appreciate some insight.
there might be effect of pneumonia as fibrosis,so they might have give tablet perfonidone
