Question 1

I'm really worried about how to manage my loved one's recovery from Covid. Their oxygen levels are mostly stable around 90, but whenever they start coughing, it drops really low to around 82 or 83. What can I do to help get rid of this cough? And are there any specific foods or things that can help boost their oxygen levels and ease the cough a bit?

Accepted Answer

do chest x ray

Question 2

Is it possible for me to completely get rid of wheezing if I stick to a strict medication plan, diet, and exercise within a year? I've been eager to join marine engineering since I was a kid, and I really need to get myself fully prepared for it. I've been dealing with wheezing for the past couple of years, mostly in the mornings when I wake up, but sometimes it happens at other times too. I'm set to join a marine college next year after finishing my BTech, and I need to be in top-notch medical condition. I'm thinking about starting swimming and running every day with the right medical advice and proper diet. Do you think this could help me get fit enough, without any wheezing issues, in a year's time?

Accepted Answer

Pulmonologist opinion is advised to the patient.

Question 3

I've been dealing with some troubling symptoms and could really use some advice. Earlier this year, I had issues with waking up in the morning and coughing up blood. It was mostly when I got up and would spit, but the rest of the day seemed fine. I also noticed palpitations, chest pain, and shortness of breath, which would often go away with burping. After getting some advice from my doctor and having some tests done, which all came back normal, that bloody sputum stopped after about a month and a half. However, over the past few days, those symptoms have returned, along with a lot of burping. This morning, I once again coughed up blood and now have a slight sore throat. Any insight you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
