What is the 4 7 8 breathing technique?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Find somewhere comfortable to sit. If you can, close your eyes. Breathe in through your nose to the count of four, hold the breath to the count of seven and exhale through your mouth to the count of eight.

View allI'm having some trouble with my breathing and I already tried the pantosec d gas tablet that my doctor recommended. I also saw a pulmonologist, had a chest X-ray and an ECG, and both came out normal. There didn't seem to be any problems, so no meds were given. Do you think I might still need any medication or other tests?

I've been dealing with TB for a while now, diagnosed about 3 months back. I'm 24 and after being on meds for a couple of months, my reports came back normal. So, Ive finished 3 months of treatment and I'm taking R Cinex 600 and Benadon 40. My appetite is good, I dont have a cough anymore, and I've even gained some weight back. But I've noticed something weird recently. For about 2 weeks, my body feels hotter in the afternoons after meals and in the evenings. It does cool down by later in the evening, but during those times, I'm feeling warm. When I checked my temperature, it was between 98 to 98.6 orally and around 98.4 axillary in the evenings between 5-6 pm. Is this normal or could it be something to do with the meds?
It is possible that the increase in body temperature you are experiencing in the afternoon and evening could be related to the medications you are taking. However, it is important to monitor this closely and consult with your healthcare provider. In the meantime, you can continue taking R-Cinex 600 (Rifampicin 450mg + Isoniazid 300mg) as prescribed and Benadon 40 (Pyridoxine 40mg) half tablet to support your treatment for tuberculosis. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical advice for further evaluation and management.

I've been having this wheezing issue since last night and it's never happened to me before. There's a lot of construction near my place, and it's super dusty. Now I've got a wheezing cough with greenish phlegm, and it's really tough to breathe. What could be going on?
