I'm really worried about my wife. She has a severe lung infection and her X-ray and CT scan reports show that her lungs are really damaged. The doctor mentioned something about her lungs being "sad gye hai." What does that mean exactly, and how serious is this situation? What are our next steps for treatment?

I've been having these asthma attacks more frequently in the past few days. It used to happen only occasionally and would go away with an asthalin inhaler, but now it's like 2 to 3 times a day. I'm feeling breathless and sometimes hear a wheezing sound. Could it be the dust I encounter while traveling that's causing this? Also, right after I wake up, the symptoms seem to get worse, with a lot of sputum and my eyes get irritated and my throat starts itching. What could be going on here?

Salbutamol inhaler and budesonide 200 sos is advised for breathing difficulty.

I'm dealing with TB and I've got some fluid in my lungs that's causing me chest pain. The doctor already took some of the fluid out, and that's how they figured out I have TB from the lab results. Should I be worried about the fluid coming back or about any other complications? What steps should I take next, and is there anything specific I should be doing to help my recovery?

start tuberculosis medicine course as per your doctor's advice
