I'm dealing with hereditary asthma and usually manage ok with my inhaler a few times a week, especially when it's cold. But right now, I'm wondering if there's a mild nebulizer solution that would help. Is Duolin enough for this, or should I consider trying Foracort? I'd really appreciate any advice.

without consult don't use nebulizer by your own

I'm really worried about my dad. He's been on TB medication for 10 days now, but he's started having sharp pain in his back where his lungs are, especially when he breathes. The doctor mentioned before it might be swelling in the lungs, but now the pain's gotten much worse. Is this something new we should be concerned about, or is it related to the TB treatment? Any advice would be appreciated.

do one chest xray and proceed further
