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've had a cough and minor fever that started about 10 days ago. I took some medicine for it, but my cough still hasn't gotten any better. The fever usually kicks in during the evening, but not so much in the noon. Lately, my cough has gotten really bad, and it's so intense sometimes that it makes me vomit. I've also noticed a bit of blood in the mornings after coughing. The cough feels like it's coming from my chest rather than my throat. Could you help me figure out what might be going on?

I've been having trouble breathing recently and went to see the doctor. He asked me to get an X-ray of my chest and face. The report said my lungs are clear, but I have a lung infection and sinusitis. I'm still struggling to breathe. Could this be small cell lung cancer? I have some symptoms, except for weight loss and coughing up blood or phlegm. It's been going on for a month, even though I'm on meds the doctor prescribed. Should I be worried?
Patient is advised tab augmentin 625 mg ,orally, thrice daily for 7 days, tab levocetrizine 10 mg bedtime for 5 days and syrup salbutamol 10 ml thrice dailly for 7 days .A pulmonologist opinion is also advised to the patient.

I'm 23 and dealing with tuberculosis, and I'm on medication for it. But lately, I've developed pulmonary fibrosis, and I'm super concerned about what's next. Is there any way to treat or even cure pulmonary fibrosis? My doctor mentioned it's irreversible but suggested that maybe it's not so bad since I'm young. Is it true that being young might help with managing this? I've read that people with pulmonary fibrosis might only live up to 35 yearsthat's really worrying me. Is there hope or treatment options out there?
there are medicines for pulmonary fibrosis. It is a curable disease
