My dad's been dealing with a fever since February 26th, and even though we started the meds I mentioned before, there's been no improvement. I then went to a pulmonary doctor who mentioned an infection after viewing the X-ray. I'm worried because apart from his hemoglobin level being 11, the blood test came back normal. They ruled out typhoid and malaria, so I'm at a bit of a loss here. Can you offer any advice on what steps to take next?

View allI've been having trouble with deep breathing for the past 20 days, and it's really freaking me out. Sometimes it's fine, but other times it comes with a pain that shoots into my back whenever I take a deep breath. I did see a gastroenterologist because I was also having stomach pain, and they mentioned something about stomach lining inflammation. Can you help me figure out what's going on and what I should do next?

I've been dealing with asthma and recently had a chest infection for which I was prescribed prednisone and antibiotics. After finishing the course, I got a sinus infection and tried to manage it without antibiotics, but now I'm back on them. My oxygen levels are at 93, and I've been relying on Ventolin and Symbicort, even increasing the Symbicort when needed. The doctor mentioned there were no signs of issues in my lungs, but I'm still feeling light-headed and short of breath. Should I be worried about this?
Continue all the medications as advised by the dermatologist.

I'm experiencing a cough whenever I'm in air conditioning, whether it's day or night. Even when I'm on an AC bus, my throat gets itchy and the coughing starts. I don't have any nasal congestion or other symptoms, just this persistent cough that's been really bothering me. What could be causing this?
You can try taking a cough suppressant like Delsym (Dextromethorphan) 30mg every 6 hours as needed to help alleviate the cough. Additionally, you can use a humidifier in your room to add moisture to the air and soothe your throat. Make sure to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day.
