When experiencing a persistent cough, you may consider consulting with a primary care physician, such as a general practitioner or family doctor, as they can evaluate your symptoms, conduct an initial examination, and provide guidance.

Dear Doctor, what is best treatment for ILD.

Female | 38

Interstitial Lung Disease makes inhaling and exhaling a challenge. The treatment focuses on reducing inflammation and managing symptoms using medications and oxygen therapy. In severe cases, lung transplantation may be necessary.

I have had a low-grade fever on and off for about 6 days, cough with blood in mucus sometimes, although it may be blood from my nosebleed, and sore throat what could be the cause?

Male | 20

You might have a chest cold. That makes you cough and feel hot. The red stuff from your nose or throat could be from bleeding. But you should go to a pulmonologist to check. Be sure to drink a lot of water and juice. And rest as much as you can. Use a humidifier too. It puts water in the air so your throat does not get dry.

Chest pain, fatigue ECG is normal, echo test is normal, blood test is normal but chest xray is foggy appearnce and black dot is present in left side of the lungs

Male | 60

Your health tests came back normal which is good. However, the strange spots on the x-ray raise some concern. Those might show an infection like pneumonia. Antibiotics can help treat that condition. Do visit your pulmonologist again for more tests and proper treatment.

Can asthmatic patient take Ibuprofen? or it is contraindication?

Female | 34

Asthmatic patients should be careful while using Ibuprofen. It can be a reason for triggering asthma symptoms such as wheezing and shortness of breath in some people. This is not the case for everybody, but it is still something to be careful with. In the case of asthma and you need Ibuprofen for pain, it is recommended to talk to your pulmonologist first to find the safest option for you.

I’ve been having a issue since morning tho I’m asthmatic when I feel the pain I use inhaler it stops and later I feel it again

Male | 22

Asthma causes breathing difficulties like chest pain and shortness of breath. If you use your inhaler and feel better, that medicine is opening your airways. However, when symptoms return, it may mean asthma isn't fully controlled. You likely need to see a pulmonologist who can adjust your treatment plan. The right treatment helps manage asthma symptoms properly.

Male | 17

You are right in saying that you have certain concerns regarding the application of creatine and whey protein while undergoing tuberculosis treatment. Normally, creatine and whey protein supplements are safe when taken safely, but in your scenario, you should be more cautious. TB treatment would require specific medicines to help do their job. The consumption of creatine and whey protein may interfere with the absorption of these drugs, or in other words, decrease the strength of drugs. It is also crucial that you do not deviate from the exact set of actions the medic tells you to because, in your place, your health is the top priority. Once the chemo treatment is done, you might consider the idea of taking these supplements as directed by your pulmonologist.

I just had oral sex with my partner he ejeculated in my mouth but never kissed me he had pulmonary tb

Male | 26

I understand your apprehension about tuberculosis transmission. Lung tuberculosis disperses via airborne particles, not through saliva exchange. The likelihood of tuberculosis transmission through oral intimacy is minimal. Common tuberculosis indicators: persistent coughing, unintended weight reduction, and persistent fatigue. Should you exhibit any of those manifestations, coupled with prior exposure history, consulting a pulmonologist is important.

Why is my cough somewhat black in colour...idid smoke in my past.

Male | 22

The tar and the other chemicals from smoking that are trapped in your lungs may cause you to have a black-colored cough. This means that the top layer of your lungs, which is trying to push out the harmful substances by coughing, is functioning properly. It's an indicator that the natural healing process of your body is working. To improve the condition of your lungs, it is critical to stop smoking and utilize water to clear out the tar that causes your cough.

I have a cold or flu or covid and my asthma is a lot worse than it has ever been. I am wheezing constantly and my reliever inhaler is not reducing the wheeze at all. I have a lot of mucus stuck in my chest and constantly coughing does not seem to be getting rid of the mucus and I think the mucus is causing me to wheeze constantly

Female | 34

Wheezing may be due to the mucus in your chest that is obstructing the air passage. The coughing may not be enough to dislodge the mucus. Adherence to your inhaler prescription is crucial. Sipping enough fluids and taking a humidifier can ease the mucus. Get medical help from a pulmonologist if the situation gets worse.

The saturation level of oxygen in your husband could signify a grave illness that is the root cause. He must visit a pulmonologist or an internist as soon as possible to diagnose the reason for his low oxygen levels and to provide effective treatment.

Female | 3

These signs may follow an RSV attack. RSV is a virus which affects the lungs and breathing. Sometimes heat in the chest and back is caused by swelling of the airways. Taking a lot of fluids and rest will enable your body to recover. However, if these signs persist or worsen, it is necessary to see a pulmonologist for further advice.
