I'm having some trouble with my breathing, and there's this whistling sound whenever I breathe in or out. I've been dealing with asthma since I was a kid. Do you think these issues are related to my childhood asthma, or could it be something else?

I'm really worried because I've been rejected for a medical check for Kuwait due to two white spots on the left side of my lungs. I feel stranded since I can't fly even though I think I'm medically fit. Is there any hope of getting rid of these spots? I had TB when I was almost 3 years old22 years ago now. I'm 24. Is there any treatment I can consider?

I understand how frustrating this situation must be for you. The white spots on your lungs are likely scar tissue from your past TB. While treatments like bronchoscopy or surgical options can sometimes help, they may not always clear the scars entirely. Consulting a pulmonologist for a detailed evaluation is the best step.

I'm experiencing something strange with my breathing. Even though my nasal passages are clear, it feels like there's something blocking my inhalation right from the start. When I tilt my head back, I notice I can inhale more deeply. Is there an actual difference in my breathing when I do that? Also, during exhalation, I feel the air coming out just fine, but could this be a problem for my lungs? Would love some clarity on this.
