Ive noticed that after I have something really cold, I start coughing with a sort of wheezing sound. Sometimes I even bring up a tiny bit of phlegm, but by the next morning, the cough is completely gone. Its like it never happened. Is this something I should be concerned about?

I'm really worried about Manoj Asthana. He's dealing with a serious lung issue and was COVID-positive about ten days ago, but thankfully, his test is negative now. However, he's still needing oxygen support, and his HRCT score is alarmingly high at 24 out of 25. I've attached his chest X-ray and HRCT report. Could you let us know what steps we should take next? We're really anxious about his condition.

Pulmonologist opinion is advised to the patient.

I've been having trouble breathing and I'm worried it might be because of tar clotting in my lungs. Is there any way to get rid of that tar buildup?

Tar buildup in the lungs, often due to smoking, can cause breathing difficulties. While it can't be fully "removed" like foreign objects, quitting smoking and adopting healthy habits like deep breathing exercises, a nutritious diet, and sometimes medications can help improve lung function and reduce further damage. Consulting a pulmonologist is crucial for tailored treatment.

I'm a bit confused about my mom's diagnosis. Her CT scan showed something like patchy airspace acinarization and some nodular radio opacities, and she has prominent bronchovascular markings. The doctor said she's got tuberculosis and put her on this Rizorine kit. But what's really bugging me is the doctor mentioned it's not contagious. Is it common for TB to be non-contagious, or could there be some misunderstanding here?

Yes it is not contagious,as we all are vaccinated for it,but if you are weak it might infect you,be safe and follow hygiene practices
