I've been dealing with this shortness of breath for quite a while now and it's really worrying me. It's like, to take a deep breath, I constantly find myself having to yawn. Could you suggest the kind of tests or treatments that might help with this?

View allI'm a bit worried because my x-ray results show I have a lung nodule. I'm applying to be a public teacher, and I don't have any pain or issues in my lung area, and I rarely cough. From what I know, a nodule isn't a communicable disease, so do you think I can still get a fit-to-work clearance?
Patient is advised bronchoscopy,FNAC and biopsy of the nodule for further management.Nodule biopsy is sent for cytology,micoscopy and AFB .Kindly review with the reports.

I'm dealing with a wet cough that's been bothering me for a week now. I tried taking Benadryl for a couple of days and then switched to Cipla's COFRYL, but nothing seems to be working. What can I do to get some relief?
Since you have already tried Benadryl and Cipla's COF-RYL without relief, I recommend trying Robitussin DM for your wet cough. Take 10ml of Robitussin DM every 4-6 hours as needed for cough. Additionally, make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest to help your body recover.

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.
