I've been dealing with flu bronchitis for the last month and a half, and ever since I've been on medication. But now I'm experiencing this chest pain on the right side, and it's gradually spreading to my arms and back. My blood test shows my ESR is 68. What should I do about this?

I'm allergic to dust and use a Foracort 400 inhaler for my allergic asthma when I'm feeling breathless. I recently spent some time in a really dusty area and might have inhaled a lot of dust. Im feeling okay right now, but Im concerned. What should I be doing after being exposed to so much dust, even if Im not having any immediate problems?

Continue same medication.

I'm really worried because I just got my medical results back, and they said theres some white area on the chest X-ray, particularly on the lower side of my left chest. It caused my medical to be deemed unfit. What could this possibly mean, and what should I do next? Do I need further tests or treatments?

Physician opinion is advised to the patient.

I'm really worried about my father's health. He's 56 and just had a CT score of 925 at the end of April. His CRP is 40.5 mg, serum LDH is 823.1 UL, D-Dimer is 319.92 ngmL, and ferritin is 769.63 ngmL. His oxygen levels keep fluctuating between 90 and 92, occasionally hitting 93 or 94. He started on steroids and anticoagulants from May 1st, but before that, he had dexona and deriphyllin for about one and a half days at the end of April. What should we do next? Is there anything specific we need to watch out for or ask his doctor about?

continue the treatment , put on oxygen if level fall below 90 percent
