I've been dealing with some respiratory issues lately. A few months back, I couldn't get rid of a cough and found out I developed allergies to house dust mites. This progressed into allergic asthma, and the doctor put me on Seretide 250 for a month, which really helped. After finishing it, my asthma got better, but I started waking up with a morning cough. I recently caught the flu, which turned into acute bronchitis. I'm feeling better now after taking antibiotics. I'm wondering if it's safe for me to start another month of Seretide 250. Do you think it's okay?

I've been spray painting a prop for only about 5 minutes and I think I breathed in some fumes. Now I'm feeling this tightness in my lungs and there's a dull pain on my right side that I've had for a few days. I read it might be lung inflammation that'll go away by itself. Should I be worried about this?

It's natural to feel concerned. Short-term lung irritation from spray paint fumes often subsides with time, especially if you're now in fresh air and staying hydrated. However, if the tightness or pain worsens, or you notice symptoms like wheezing or breathlessness, consult a doctor promptly.

I'm really worried about my dad's CT HRCT report since he's 50 today, and I just don't fully understand it. The findings say things like "pulmonary interstitium is normal bilaterally," and theres no "nodular shadowing" or "ground glass haze." The report also mentions the "peribronchovascular tissue is unremarkable," which sounds like a good thing, but Im not sure. Plus, it says no "pleural effusion" or "calcification" is seen, and the "cardiovascular markings are of normal caliber." The impression just says "normal study." Does this mean everythings okay, and theres really nothing to worry about? Could you explain it so I can be sure Im understanding this right?

need not worry , its normal

My wife has been on Akurit4 for her TB treatment, and it seemed to be going well, but now, on the 15th day, she's got this fever of 102 again. Is this something that happens during TB treatments? When can we expect the fever to go away?
