Asked for Female, 60
Greetings In which there is pain, cough and cold. and have fever
Answered on 17th Jan '25
It sounds like you are experiencing discomfort, including respiratory symptoms and an increase in body temperature. These signs could indicate a viral infection like a cold or flu. Staying well-hydrated, resting, and using over-the-counter medications can help alleviate your symptoms. Warm teas and soups may provide comfort, while a humidifier can ease breathing. It’s important to monitor your temperature and symptoms closely. If your fever persists beyond a few days or worsens, I encourage you to consult a pulmonologist for a thorough evaluation and personalized guidance.

I got problem after taking weed, a little pain in chest,shortness of breath, mind confusion a lot, I take it first time in my life and got problems , I do smoke cigarettes often, now what should i do , my lungs x-ray is cleared
Answered on 16th Jan '25
The chest discomfort, shortness of breath, and confusion may stem from the body's reaction to cannabis, especially for a first-time user. Smoking can also contribute to respiratory issues. It's crucial to stay calm. Ensure you’re in a comfortable setting and hydrate. If symptoms persist or worsen, I recommend reaching out to a pulmonologist for a thorough evaluation. Professional support is invaluable in addressing your concerns and ensuring your well-being.
Asked for Female, 18 years
I'm suffering from chronic cough from 5 days and today its more severe I'm having yellow eyes also chest pain and sore throat
Answered on 16th Jan '25
It sounds like you’re experiencing significant discomfort with the persistent cough, chest pain, sore throat, and yellowish tint in your eyes. These symptoms may suggest an infection or inflammation, possibly involving your respiratory system. Staying hydrated and using a humidifier might help ease your throat. Over-the-counter pain relievers can reduce discomfort. However, given the severity of your situation and the presence of yellowish eyes, it's crucial to seek medical attention promptly. A pulmonologist can provide a proper diagnosis and tailored treatment plan to support your recovery.
Asked for Male, 20
Hello I am 20 years old i have cough, flowing nose and chest pain while coughing since from last 2 days what should I do now I didn't get any relief from that which medicine should I prefer
Answered on 15th Jan '25
It seems you may be experiencing symptoms of a respiratory infection, which can cause cough, nasal congestion, and chest discomfort. To find relief, consider staying hydrated, using over-the-counter medications like cough suppressants or decongestants, and resting as much as possible. Warm teas or steam inhalation can also soothe your throat and help with congestion. However, if the symptoms persist beyond a few days, worsen, or if you experience fever, it's crucial to seek medical advice. A pulmonologist can provide a proper diagnosis and recommend effective treatment tailored to your needs.

It sounds like you are experiencing a combination of symptoms such as severe cough, fever, respiratory difficulties, and body discomfort. These could be caused by various issues, including infections, allergies, or other medical conditions. It's crucial to monitor your symptoms closely.

Asked for Male, 28
What happens if I marry a girl with asthma?
Answered on 8th Jan '25
Marrying someone with asthma can be a loving and supportive experience. Asthma is often characterized by breathlessness, wheezing, or tightness in the chest, typically triggered by allergens, exercise, or respiratory infections. Having asthma under control is essential; medications and lifestyle adjustments can significantly improve quality of life. Encouraging your partner to follow a treatment plan, avoid triggers, and maintain regular check-ups with a healthcare provider can be beneficial. Open communication about their condition fosters understanding and helps manage potential challenges.
Asked for Female, 28
What happens if I marry a girl with asthma?
Answered on 8th Jan '25
Asthma symptoms often include wheezing, coughing, or shortness of breath, usually triggered by allergens or stress. It's important to create an environment free from common irritants like smoke or strong fragrances. Effective management includes medications and lifestyle adjustments. Encourage her to follow her doctor’s advice and maintain regular check-ups. Open communication about her triggers can strengthen your relationship. Remember, with proper care, asthma can be managed effectively.
Asked for Male, 17
I am 17 years old , I have chest pain and kind off sore throat and feel dizziness if I can't breath properly , I don't have any wheezing problem , many days it may be asthma , like this happens from my small age but I take medicine for cough and cold and gets good for some time after a period I get again like throat pain chest pain dizziness
Answered on 4th Jan '25
It sounds like you have chest discomfort, throat pain, and dizziness. We can expect to worry about these symptoms. On the other hand, they might have origins in factors like allergens, respiratory diseases, or mental problems. You should monitor your symptoms and be able to point out possible triggers. While a drug may be a short-term solution, the sequential pattern you are reporting is a case that has to be diagnosed further. Now you should fix an appointment with a pulmonologist who can diagnose your case in a more in-depth way.
Asked for Female, 56
It have a dangerous coughing in her chest but the medication is there blow 1 inhalers 2 Antistanines 3 Dextromethorphan 4 Benzonatate 5 codein or Hydrocodone
Answered on 2nd Jan '25
These include infections, allergies, or irritation. Good ways to relax and open bronchial tubes are inhalers, which are medications, while antihistamines are used to cancel the symptoms of allergies. Dextromethorphan and benzonatate are among the soothing medicines for a prolonged cough, and among prescription drugs, codeine or hydrocodone may be curative measures for severe conditions. The right thing is to keep tabs on symptoms and visit a pulmonologist if your cough gets worse or doesn’t get better.
Asked for Male, 22
Iam 22 year old male I have common cold symptoms and I took antibiotics and analgesics But I had a cough when I put my head in pillow and excessive salivation
Answered on 2nd Jan '25
It seems that you are going through common cold symptoms such as a continuous cough when lying down and an increase in saliva. These signs usually result from nasal congestion or irritation of the throat. Even though antibiotics are efficient in destroying bacterial infections, they will not have any effect on viral diseases such as the common cold. There are also easy remedies available for OTC ones and combination with good hydration will relieve discomfort. If can't recur, if you encounter shortness of breath, or if you continue to have too much saliva, please confer with a pulmonologist for a complete review. Always, assuming the proper course by asking for good advice is a good way to get the right information and care.
