I'm worried about my right cp lungs being blunted. I've had a cough for the last 30 days. Can you recommend a good medication for this?

A blunted right CP lung could indicate some underlying condition, like pleural effusion or lung inflammation. Given your persistent cough for 30 days, it's important to consult a doctor for a thorough evaluation. Medications like antibiotics or inhalers may be prescribed based on the diagnosis, but a proper assessment is needed to determine the right treatment.

Im thinking about getting a PFT test because my doctor suggested it for peace of mind. A few months back, I was dealing with thick phlegm and sputum due to bronchitis, and my doctor prescribed some meds that got me back to normal. But just to be safe, I'm considering a PFT test and maybe a CT chest scan and lung scan. Are the CT chest scan and lung scan the same thing, or are they different? Also, what should I do to prepare for them? Any advice would be really helpful.

For the confirmation of diagnosis ct chest is advised to the patient.

I've been on TB meds for three months, and my recent LFT and creatinine tests came back normal. My doctor adjusted my meds and I'm now taking RCin 600 and Solonex 300 for the next six months. I've got a get-together next week, and I'm wondering if it's okay to drink alcohol just for that day since my liver functions are normal right now. Is it safe, or should I skip the alcohol?

absolutely no, it might cause cross reaction with TB drugs. better to avoid alcohol
