Question 1

My husband has been experiencing episodes of sighing and breathing difficulty. A month ago, it seemed to come and go, but recently it's gotten worse. We finally saw a doctor who said he has bronchitis, even though his ECG, sugar, and most test results were normal, apart from a bit of chest congestion and a high TLC indicating some infection. He's on Augmentin, montair fx, and Pantop D now, plus an inhaler. Im concerned because hes still sighing and Im just wondering if this is normal as he starts treatment. His oxygen saturation is at 97-98. Should I be worried or is there anything else we should be doing to help him get better?

Accepted Answer

Tab augmentin duo 625mg ,orally ,thrice daily for 5 days advised to the patient.Also syrup salbutamol 10ml thrice daily for 7 days is advised to the patient.Steam inhalation is also advised twice

Question 2

I've been dealing with asthma for about 10 years now, and it's really frustrating. I don't smoke or drink, and I eat meat, but I'm always just resorting to my inhaler. My family doc thinks it's just an allergy, but I'm really hoping to find a way to get past this. Do you have any insights on how I might be able to cure or better manage my asthma?

Accepted Answer

there's no permanent cure ,you should avoid the allergic agent

Question 3

I'm a bit concerned about a recent x-ray I had for a job-related issue. The report mentioned something about bronchovascular markings in my lungs. I'm wondering if it would help to take an antibiotic course to improve my condition. I have a small amount of breathing trouble, but it gets much worse whenever I catch a cold. Could you give me some advice on what I could do to prevent lung infections?

Accepted Answer

Bronchovascular markings on an X-ray indicate inflammation or congestion, but antibiotics are only effective against bacterial infections; to prevent lung infections and manage symptoms, consider consulting your pulmonologist

I've been on my TB meds for nearly two weeks now, and recently I've started having really bad coughing fits, especially when I'm lying down. This wasn't happening before I started the treatment. Do you have any idea what might be causing this?
