What can I drink to cleanse my lungs?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
There is no scientific proof to methods available online to detox your lungs. Fortunately, Lungs are good at cleaning and repairing themselves unless there was any chronic damage done. You may follow some steps to keep the lungs healthy such as Quit smoking, avoid second-hand smoke, steer clear of pollution indoors & outside (Wear mask, use air purifiers), prevent lung infections (Hand washing, maintain distance from sick people, get flu/pneumonia vaccines), include anti oxidants in diet and do breathing exercises or any physical activity on regular basis.

View allI'm dealing with a bit of a dry cough for a while now, and it feels like it's from some throat irritation. It's been going on for about 50 days, and I'm also having slight trouble with my breathing. I went to see an ENT specialist, and he mentioned it's just acidity, but I haven't had any stomach burning at all. It feels more like something's really bothering my throat, and that's why the dry cough is there. What could be going on here? Can you help figure this out?

I'm really in need of some advice on this annoying chest pain I've been experiencing. I had covid back in January with a really bad cough and something called "covid tongue." My HRCT scan looked normal, and I was treated with Fabiflu. But a week after I started feeling better, I began getting this dull chest pain mostly around my sternum. I got an X-ray, which mentioned increased bronchovascular prominence, and a PFT showed COPD in the restrictive area with moderate obstruction. My doctor put me on Foracort 200 and some muscle relaxants, which helped, but the pain still bugs me at night, sometimes radiating to my mid-back. I've had two normal ECGs and another CT scan recently, which showed nothing unusual in my lungs. It's been four months, and I'm still waking up with this chest pain. What's going on with me, and how much longer might this take to get better?
it is restrictive lung disease and it will almost take 2-3 months to treat it

My aunt's been dealing with this persistent cough for such a long time, and it just seems to be getting worse. We've tried all sorts of treatments, both allopathy and homeopathy, but nothing's really helping. It's pretty concerning. What should we do? Is there a specific treatment approach we should consider to actually get to the root of this problem?
take syrup ascoril twice a day
