I'm trying to understand the normal pulmonary flow for a tall adult. Does having high pulmonary flow automatically mean someone has pulmonary artery hypertension? I'm a bit concerned and would appreciate some clarity on this.
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The normal pulmonary flow in a tall adult is approximately 4-6 liters per minute. High pulmonary flow can be an indicator of pulmonary artery hypertension. If you suspect pulmonary artery hypertension, it is important to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

View allI was diagnosed with COVID on 25th Feb, and my CT scan showed about 30-40% lung involvement. I stayed in the hospital for 5 days and was discharged once my vitals were normal. After 28 days of treatment, my X-ray looked completely fine. My oxygen saturation (spO2) has been around 95-98% during these 28 days, but I've become really worried about developing fibrosis after reading stuff online, so I've been checking my spO2 around 20 times a day. My doctor said everything is okay after the X-ray. Also, my 6-minute walk test shows spO2 levels around 97-98. Should I stop checking my spO2 so often? If not, how long should I continue measuring it? I'm really scared, but I haven't had any fevers. Could you guide me, please?
anxiety or stress issue

I'm having this cough that hits every early morning, but then it seems fine for the rest of the day. I had an X-ray and my doctor said my left lung isn't clear. Do you think I should get an HRCT scan done?

I'm currently on mlife tab which I take once a day and use seroflo as needed, especially when the weather changes. The only issue I have is breathlessness. I'm curious about how long I can continue using mlife and if there's any chance of completely curing this. If a cure isn't possible, what's the best approach to prevent it from coming back?
tablet mlife has little side-effects like nausea, vomiting. so you can take this tablet for long time till your symptoms are reduced
