My dad just got a chest x-ray, and it says he has prominent branchovascular markings on both sides. I'm really worried about what this could mean. Is it something serious that we need to be concerned about?

I'm wondering how long it usually takes for my IGE levels to go down. I've been on Spirodin 650 and Montemac FX, but I'm still having trouble with my breathing. When should I start feeling like I did before?

Spirodin 650 is a brand name for Montelukast, which is used to treat asthma and allergic rhinitis. Montemac FX is a combination medication containing Montelukast and Fexofenadine, used for allergic conditions. If you are experiencing breathing problems while taking these medications, it is important to consult your doctor immediately. They may need to adjust your dosage or switch to a different medication to alleviate your symptoms. Monitoring your IGE levels is also important, but the time it takes for them to decrease can vary depending on the individual and the underlying condition. Regular follow-up with your doctor is recommended to track your progress.

I'm an asthmatic and usually use Foracort 200 rotacaps during my asthma attacks. But every time after I use it, I feel really weak, like I can't even hold a glass, and I get super sleepy for almost 12 hours. It's quite concerning and I can't figure out why this is happening. Can you help me understand?

I've been dealing with this issue where I cough up phlegm every morning, and it's been flaring up again after I caught COVID. This was under control before I got sick, but now it's back again. Especially after I eat, it feels like it gets worse. Do you have any advice on how I can manage this?

Tab azithromycin 500mg,orally,once daily for 3 days is advised to the patient.
