I've been dealing with bronchial asthma for a few days now, and I've realized that being around a lot of dust and my pet, who's shedding more than usual, might be making it worse. I've been using budamate 200 transcaps for a while and taking Montiar LC for my allergies. Just bought some piriton syrup and broncocin 200SR with an old prescription and started them last night, but I'm not noticing much improvement. I'm also anxious, which isn't helping my breathing problems. Could you suggest if I should switch inhalers or recommend an antibiotic that might help? Looking forward to your advice.

View allI've been dealing with a cough for about a week now, and it's starting to make it hard for me to breathe. Do you have any advice on what I should do?
It sounds like you may be experiencing a respiratory infection. I recommend taking Robitussin or Mucinex to help relieve your cough and improve your breathing. These medications can help loosen mucus and make coughing more productive. Additionally, you may consider using a humidifier at home to help ease your symptoms. If your symptoms persist or worsen, you will need a strong course of antibiotics, for which your need to go to the hospital.

I've been having trouble with shortness of breath and a dry cough, especially when I'm talking or laughing. I saw a doctor and was given some meds for three days: Zifi LBX, Maxtra Cold, Nelson, and Corex cough syrup. But I'm still dealing with the same issues. What should I do now? Any advice would be appreciated.
That could be due to chronic pharyngitis,visit general physician for evaluationa and appropriate management and also do salt water gargling and take luke warm water

My dad just got a positive corona test result, but apart from a fever hovering around 99-100F, he doesn't really have any other symptoms. It's been a week since the test, and to be safe, we got an X-ray done. The report mentioned something about "Prominent branchovascular markings bilaterally." He's quarantining at home at the moment. Can you help me understand what those markings mean? Also, he's diabetic, but it's pretty well managed. I'm just trying to figure out if there's anything else we should be worried about.
The prominent branchovascular markings in the X-ray report suggest some mild changes in the blood vessels of the lungs, which can sometimes occur due to infections like COVID-19. Since your father is asymptomatic except for the mild fever and his diabetes is under control, its good that he's in quarantine. Monitoring his symptoms and maintaining regular blood sugar checks will be important during his recovery.
