I'm really worried because my recent chest X-ray showed a white shadow, and I've been having some breathing issues. It seems to get worse when I'm running or being active. What could this mean, and should I be concerned about the white shadow on my X-ray?

I'm really worried about my friend's situation. She has a high ESR, but it's been consistently at 92. The doctor at Apollo said she has TB, but her ESR hasn't changed. Can you help me understand what's going on with her?

As the weather is getting colder, I'm starting to have trouble breathing and it feels like there's a heaviness in my chest. Is it okay for me to take omnacortil 20 mg tablets whenever this happens, or should I be doing something different? What's your advice?

Seroflo rotahaler sos for breathing difficulty is advised to the patient.

I'm dealing with some really frustrating wheezing and breathing issues that started back in January. It seems like something specific is triggering it, but I can't figure out what. I've had severe wheezing four times and had to get Deriphyllin injections, but they don't seem to be helping much. I did notice that it might be related to eating non-veg food, as my asthma flares up afterwards, and this time, even Deriphyllin isn't fixing it. Can you recommend the right kind of inhaler I should use for a lasting solution to this allergic asthma?

Seroflo inhaler sos is advised to the pt for wheezing.
