Question 1

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been dealing with bronchitis and has had COPD for about two years now. We saw a pulmonologist who recommended AB FLO and AZEE 500 FARACART, but they haven't really helped much. She's still having a hard time breathing, coughing a lot, and there's a ton of mucus in her chest, making her lungs feel heavy. Can you suggest any other medicines or daily exercises that might help manage her COPD? She still does house chores like washing clothes and cleaning, but maybe there are specific activities or foods she should avoid? Any guidance would be appreciated.

Accepted Answer

avoid dust areas , allergens , allergic foods

Question 2

I've been having some health issues that are worrying me. Last year, I had TB and got it sorted out with a CT scan. The main symptoms were blood in my sputum and nose. I finished my 6-month treatment in June 2022, but these past 3 months, I've been having this pain on the right side of my chest. The X-rays are coming back normal, but when I take deep breaths, that pain is still there. And for the last 5-10 days, whenever I do yoga or deep breathing exercises, a bit of blood comes from my right nostril. What do you think could be going on?

Accepted Answer

take one painkiller and start one course of antibiotics tablet. amoxyclav for 5 days

Question 3

My mom's 53 and she's got diabetes and this dust allergy thing going on. She randomly got short of breath today and couldn't talk, which panicked us a bit. She usually gets mild asthma when she's near dust, but today it hit out of nowhere with no dust around. After taking Asthalin, she felt better. I'm curious about what could've triggered this sudden asthma attack without being around dust, and is it okay for her to use Asthalin every day?

Accepted Answer

when symptoms exacerbated take asthalin

I'm worried I might have a chest deformity. Can you help me understand what it might be and how to find out if I actually have it? I'm thinking about getting a check-up, but I want to be sure about what I'm dealing with first.

Patient is advised x-ray chest pa view.
