Questions & Answers on "Pulmonologist" (401)

Want to know how it transfer tuberculosis from a patient who has been having treatment for more than 6 month to another working in the same team.

Male | 43

Tuberculosis spreads through the air from coughs or sneezes. If your teammate's treatment exceeds six months, transmission risk decreases. Watch for persistent coughing, fever, and weight loss. See a pulmonologist if symptoms arise. Cover coughs, wash hands frequently - good hygiene prevents TB spread.

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.

Hi Iam 26 years old and I’m having a severe cough and breathlessness , I have done a chest x ray and COVID RTPCR but nothing is in the reports ..but at night I’m suffering from cough and breathlessness

It is possible that you may have an underlying respiratory condition such as asthma or COPD that is causing your symptoms. You should see a doctor for a more thorough evaluation and to discuss treatment options. It is also possible that your symptoms could be caused by allergies or other environmental triggers. An allergist or pulmonologist can help you identify the underlying cause of your symptoms and develop an effective treatment plan.

I don't have a persistent cough or nasal congestion, but I'm experiencing catarrh in my chest that occasionally impedes my ability to speak. There are times when I need to clear my throat frequently, as the catarrh buildup in my chest restricts airflow or speech. Occasionally, I find myself needing to bring it out through my mouth by gently guiding it from the nasal passage

Female | 28

yo, ur symptoms, like, suggest the presence of mucus or phlegm in ur chest, which, may be contributing to throat and speech discomfort. it's, like, advisable to consult with a pulmonologist or ENT for a, like, comprehensive evaluation. they can assess ur respiratory and throat symptoms, maybe conduct imaging or pft, and determine the underlying cause. treatment options, you know, may include meds to reduce mucus production or, like, promote its clearance.

The tests show you may have a sickness. Your body is fighting it. The TB medicine is helping, but sicknesses can take time to go away. Keep taking your medicine like the doctor said. Tell the doctor if you feel new things. Stay hopeful! Follow what the doctor says.
