Is it normal to feel the same pain I had before my thoracentesis, even though it's been 36 hours since it was done? I'm worried the pleural fluid might have come back. Could tuberculosis be causing this effusion? The pain is really bothering me, and I'm waiting on my report, which won't be ready until next week. Can you give me some advice in the meantime?

I've been noticing a hissing sound when I inhale, and honestly, it's been happening on and off for about 15 years now. Lately though, like for the last 6 months, it's been popping up way more, like every few days. It's especially noticeable in cooler weather or if I'm around dust, sneezing, laughing really hard, or even when I'm climbing up hills or stairs like to the third floor. It's starting to worry me, and I'm not sure what's going on. Could you give me some guidance on what might be causing this?

I'm feeling really worried because I've had symptoms like a fever around 100F, a lot of coughing, and this weird pressure on the left side of my chest and back for the last four days. I've stayed at home, isolated myself, and took a COVID test, but I don't have the results yet. I also have asthma and allergies to dust and smoke. Could you please suggest what precautions to take and if there's any medication I should consider?

My dad's been diagnosed with something called ILD, and I'm really worried about him. We first took him to a military hospital where they put him on steroids, but they didn't help, and his cough just kept going. Two months back, we visited Jolly Grant in Dehradun, and they prescribed him Musiac 600 BT, but its still not making a difference. He's never smoked or drank, and his liver function tests are normal. But this cough just won't go away. What else can we try?
