I'm really worried because I had an allergic bronchitis attack about 5 years ago, and now it feels like the same thing happened again last night. My breathing airways got blocked, and I had this wheezing sound coming from my chest the whole time. I couldn't sleep at all. The last time this happened, I used an Albuterol inhaler to get through it. Should I stick with that again, or is there something else I should do?

View allI've had pulmonary bronchitis in the past and got treated for it recently. It's been about two weeks since I also caught COVID, and while mostly everything's fine, I've noticed that some foods are making my phlegm worse. I'm wondering if this is something I should be concerned about or if I need to check in with a doctor. What do you think?

I'm really worried about my sister. She's been dealing with whooping cough and a bit of trouble breathing. We first saw a pulmonologist who said it might be because of her high white blood cell count, which is at 17,000. He gave her Hetrazan 100 and Cefpo 200 a week ago, but she's still coughing a lot. Today, we went to see a more senior pulmonologist and he thinks it might actually be asthma. He prescribed things like duolin rotacaps, seroflo rotacaps 250, levosalbutamol, ipratropium bromide, and mebendazole. I'm just confusedis this because of the high white blood cell count or is it asthma?

I recently had an x-ray for a job requirement and the results mentioned minimal hazed infiltrates in the lateral aspect of my left upper lung, and fibrotic densities in the left perihilar region. They also asked for an apicolordotic chest x-ray. I had PTB back in 2014 and was cleared after six months of treatment. Does this mean the PTB might have returned or is it something else?
Hello, based on your recent X-ray results, it seems there are some mild changes in your left lung, possibly related to previous pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB). The fibrotic densities suggest healed areas from your past illness. The doctor is likely asking for an apicolordotic chest X-ray to get a clearer view of the upper lung for further assessment. It's good to monitor, but these findings don't necessarily indicate active disease.
