I've been having trouble breathing and my chest feels tight. Do I need to get tested for chronic bronchitis, and is it something that can be cured?

View allI'm using Combihale FF 500 now and I'm feeling some vibrations in my chest. Could it be from the medication? I've been diagnosed with asthma and Foracort 200 isn't helping much. Is this something serious or just normal side effects?

I'm a bit worried. I recently had a plain CT scan of my chest at Apollo Hospital in Chennai and it came back with some concerns. When I went for a medical check-up for Kuwait, the doctor said I was unfit because of something they found on my chest X-ray. They mentioned something about an abnormal chest and blunting in the right chest CP angle, and there's this white scar on the downside of my chest. I was told there's no medicine for it. What should I do to resolve this issue?
The discrepancy between the Apollo Hospital CT scan and the Kuwait medical checkup chest X-ray results suggests a possible error or misinterpretation; the "blunting of right costophrenic angle" and "white scar" may indicate a benign, old, healed lesion or scarring, and since the doctor said no medicine is required, you may want to consider a second opinion or a repeat CT scan to confirm the findings and clarify your fitness for work in Kuwait.
