I've been noticing that I'm getting white and clear sputum, and I'm a bit concerned. Is this something normal, or should I be worried? I don't have any other symptoms, but I'm not sure if this is something I should get checked out. Can you help?

I'm really worried about TB treatment with AKT tabs. I've heard they're supposed to be taken for months, but is there a risk of lung damage like cavities forming during or after the treatment? Is that something I should be concerned about?

it might cause due to tuberculosis, but the medicines can cure it

I'm really concerned about my recent chest X-ray results which show that both hilar and lung markings are increased. Also, I've been having a fever fluctuating between 99-100 degrees for the last 15 days. No other symptoms have shown up yet. What could this mean? Should I be worried about anything serious?

I've been feeling really unwell since I accidentally inhaled carbon monoxide from the stove while taking steam. I didnt realize that breathing in those fumes could be harmful, so I kept doing it three times a day for about two months. Now Im having symptoms like nausea, chest pain, shortness of breath, and an itchy throat. I'm worried about whether this could lead to any lung diseases or even cancer. Could you please let me know if these symptoms are related and if I should be concerned about any serious health issues?

do a chest xray
