I'm a smoker who has quit recently, and I'm really interested in knowing how I can clean my lungs now. Could you tell me where I might be able to get this done and what the costs might look like? Also, if you could explain a little about the procedure, that would be great.

Hi, it's great that you've quit smoking! To help clean your lungs, you can undergo a treatment called pulmonary rehabilitation, which includes breathing exercises, exercise therapy, and sometimes medications. The cost can vary depending on your location and the clinic, but it typically ranges from 1,500 to 5,000 per session. It's always best to consult a pulmonologist to determine the most appropriate treatment plan for your specific needs.

View allI've recently had a blood test, and it shows my eosinophil counts are higher than normal. I've also been having some breathing issues while I'm asleep, with a wheezing sound whenever I breathe in or out. Can you suggest what steps I should take next? Is there anything I can adjust in my diet to help bring my eosinophil counts back to normal levels?
It sounds like your high eosinophil count may be related to an allergic reaction or respiratory issue like asthma. I recommend following up with your doctor for further evaluation and possibly allergy testing. In the meantime, avoid allergens, and include anti-inflammatory foods like omega-3-rich fish, fruits, and vegetables in your diet.

I'm a bit concerned because I had some red in my sputum about 4 years ago, but I didn't feel any chest pain at the time. It's been normal since, but should I still be worried about that past incident?
what is your query now
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
I'm really worried because I've been experiencing some unusual symptoms lately. I have a history of allergic asthma, and I've noticed that when I inhale strong perfumes, it triggers a cold and a dry cough. I work outdoors a lot and have been using hand sanitizer frequently. For about a month now, I've noticed bloody mucus in my throat, which I end up swallowing, and it leaves a metallic taste. When I took a rapid corona test, it came out negative, although when they took the nasal swab, there was some blood on the stick. I don't have any other symptoms, but when I don't sleep well, I have a mild dry cough. I even tried antibiotics, but nothing seems to help. Could this be related to inhaling the sanitizer while rubbing it on my hands? What should I do about it? What remedies or steps should I take?
Seroflo rotahaler sos for breathing difficulty is advised to the patient.
