I've been dealing with a mild pain in my right chest for the past three months, and I'm starting to worry. I don't have a cough or anything serious like that, but for some reason, I've gotten in the habit of exhaling this white mucus from my right lung and spitting it out, like, over 200 times a day. It feels like I can't stop this habit without feeling a kind of burning sensation in my lung, like something's there and it starts acting up. The mucus is pure white, not bloody, sometimes even gel-like. Could this be causing the chest pain? Should I be worried about this habit?

View allMy relative has been experiencing severe back pain for the past three days and the doctor suggested an HRCT scan to check for Covid-19. The results showed a few parenchymal fibrotic bands, but everything else looks normal. I'm quite concerned about what this could mean. Could you give us some advice on what steps we should take next, or if theres anything specific we should be cautious about?
it is normal only, if you are having symptoms related to breathing, kindly consult a pulmonologist

I've had this cough with mucus for almost a month now, and it's really starting to worry me. The doctors say it's allergic bronchitis, and my x-ray showed something, but even with the medication, I feel like I'm only getting partial relief. I still hear this wheezing sound in my chest that makes it hard to breathe. They just prescribed me an inhaler, Seroflo 250, for emergencies, but I'm not really satisfied with how things are going, especially since its been dragging on for so long. Plus, after taking Augmentin, I feel a kind of stabbing pain in the middle of my right lung and a slight pain in my right kidneynot too bad, but its there. They suggested checking for COVID, but when I called the helpline, they said I didnt have the symptoms. I'm honestly super confused about what to do next. Im willing to continue treatment but just need some answers about what's really going on. What should be my next steps?
Patient is advised sputum for AFB and microscopy.

I'm really worried about my loved one who's dealing with advanced chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and now also has acute congestive heart failure. His wheezing cough seems to be getting worse and he can't get any sleep because of it. Right now, he's using Combimist L respules with a nebulizer, but his LVEF percentage is down to 10. I'm really anxious to know if there are any medications or treatments that could help control his wheezing cough better. What would you suggest?
To help control his wheezing cough, I recommend adding a long-acting bronchodilator such as Formoterol (brand name: Foracort) to his treatment regimen. The recommended dosage would be 1-2 inhalations twice daily. Additionally, a corticosteroid inhaler like Fluticasone (brand name: Flohale) can be added to reduce airway inflammation. The usual dosage would be 2 inhalations twice daily. These medications can help improve his symptoms and quality of life.
