Question 1

I've been feeling really unwell since I accidentally inhaled carbon monoxide from the stove while taking steam. I didnt realize that breathing in those fumes could be harmful, so I kept doing it three times a day for about two months. Now Im having symptoms like nausea, chest pain, shortness of breath, and an itchy throat. I'm worried about whether this could lead to any lung diseases or even cancer. Could you please let me know if these symptoms are related and if I should be concerned about any serious health issues?

Accepted Answer

do a chest xray

Question 2

I'm getting this wheezing sound when I breathe in, and my pulmonologist had me do a PFT and FENO test. The FENO test results show 58, which is apparently severe, but I'm not an asthma patient. The PFT shows 72. Should I be worried about how serious this is? Do I need to take any specific precautions? I'm currently using Symbicort 320 twice a day.

Accepted Answer

if you are smoker then avoid it. continue the medication given

Question 3

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?

Accepted Answer

tablet mlife has little side-effects like nausea, vomiting. so you can take this tablet for long time till your symptoms are reduced

I've been coughing up black mucus for the last 15 days after I first started having COVID-19 symptoms. Should I be worried about this, or is it a common thing that happens as you recover?
