My wife has been dealing with a really bothersome dry cough and also struggles when shes around dust. I'm a bit worried and wondering what might be the best medicine for her dry cough, or Sukha Dhaska. Will Montair LC be effective, or should we be considering something else?

View allMy grandfather is in the ICU right now and I'm really worried because the display is showing he has low oxygen supply. Can a doctor explain what's happening and what this might mean for his condition?
Low oxygen supply in a critical condition like ICU can be concerning. It is important to address this issue promptly. One common medication used to increase oxygen supply is **Oxygen Therapy**. This involves administering oxygen through a mask or nasal prongs at a specific flow rate prescribed by the healthcare provider. The dosage and duration of oxygen therapy will be determined by the medical team based on your grandfather's condition. It is crucial to follow their instructions closely to ensure optimal oxygen delivery to his body tissues.

I'm 26 and I've noticed that my oxygen level on the pulse oximeter is usually at 95, but sometimes it drops to 93 before going back to 95. My pulse rate is mostly around 92. I don't have any other symptoms, so I'm wondering if this is normal. Which type of doctor should I see about this?
A pulse oximeter reading of 93-95% is generally within an acceptable range, though it can vary slightly depending on factors like positioning or movement. Since you dont have other symptoms, it's likely normal, but if you're concerned, consulting a **general physician** or a **pulmonologist** for a thorough evaluation would be a good idea.

Ive had a cough with mucus for the past 15 days. It's gotten a bit better, but its still there. Should I be worried about this, or get a chest X-ray? And is there a chance my 1.7-year-old baby could catch it from me?
