How can I cure chest infection
Pulmonologist
Answered on 16th Dec '24
A chest infection usually brings on such symptoms as a cough, chest tightness, and difficulty breathing. It can be caused by bacteria, viruses, or irritants. For the effective relieving of symptoms, it is recommended that staying hydrated, resting, and using a humidifier are some of the ways you can get relief at home. Medication is offered as the over-the-counter type and it may help to reduce the pain. However, patients who have high fever or persistent cough or have other severe symptoms should consult a pulmonologist for proper treatment.

Hello, I am 30 years old. I have shortness of breath in the bronchi. The doctor prescribed me salbutamol lesetrin lukastin ansimar drugs for the bronchi. Can I masturbate while using these drugs?
Kişi | 30
Short breath in the air tubes can come from things like asthma or lung illness. The meds your doc gave you, like salbutamol, lesetrin, lukastin, and ansimar, help open up the air tubes and cut swelling. Touching yourself likely won't impact your issue or how well the meds work. Just follow what your doctor says and take the meds as told.

Do you think i have covid? I have shortness of breath, a very sore throat, muscle pains, conjestion and dizziness
Female | 15
You may feel short of breath and have a sore throat that makes swallowing difficult. Your muscles might ache, and you could experience congestion in your sinuses. You may also feel dizzy as if your head is spinning. These signs may indicate a COVID-19 infection, as the virus can cause these symptoms. To aid recovery, make sure to rest and drink plenty of fluids. It’s important to isolate yourself from others to avoid spreading the illness. Be sure to contact your doctor about these symptoms.

I have asthma but no inhaler and I want to start track and field in my school. What should I do?
Female | 14
Sports if you are asthmatic and lack of inhaler can turn out to be a dangerous affair. Asthma is a disease that can cause breathing difficulties, coughing, and compactness of the chest among other things. Physical activities can provoke an asthma attack. In your situation, it would be dangerous to do track and field without an inhaler. Warn your parents or school nurse about your asthma and request them to help you get an inhaler before beginning track and field.

I am 52 yr old female patient. I'm suffering with dry cough and wheezing since 4 days. What should I do now?
Female | 52
You are having a hard time with a dry cough and wheezing. These symptoms could be signs of a respiratory infection or asthma. You may have a dry cough due to irritation in your throat. Wheezing is a high-pitched whistling sound usually produced when the airways are narrowed. To relieve your symptoms, you can use a humidifier, drink warm liquids, avoid triggers like smoke or strong odors, and stay hydrated. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it would be wise to visit a pulmonologist.

Male | 26
Medications for TB commonly bring about changes in mood such as crankiness. Having junk meals while under TB drugs could worsen the situation. Ensure your brother eats nourishing food. If he still gets angry easily, you should consult his doctor.

Breathing problem and not able to eat food
Female | 63
You're experiencing breathlessness and an inability to eat. Breathing difficulties can be a result of weak lungs or heart. When you experience a struggle to eat, it could be problems with the throat or stomach. Both could be symptoms of a problem, particularly if it's continuous. It's necessary to have a checkup to identify what's making these problems.

I am a 20 year old male who has been having chest pains for the past week. They have come and go and spread through my chest and shoulders to my back. They are typically sharp or dull and can occur when I take a deep breath but feel better while I exercise. I had this before and had two x rays in the past and an x ray today to check if there was anything wrong with my lungs and evertime, my doctors assured me I am fine. I heard that x rays can miss lung cancer.
Male | 20
X-rays are generally effective in detecting lung conditions, but they may not always identify all potential issues, and early stages lung cancer. However it's important to note that chest pain can have various causes, and lung cancer is relatively rare, especially in young individuals. Consider discussing your concerns with your doctor who can evaluate your symptoms and recommend further tests or referrals to address your chest pains. They are in the best position to provide appropriate guidance based on your individual situation.

She says she had an attack when she was trying to tell us she is not able to breathe well.Since that day she is worried and little anxious that same incident might not occur.This gave us an idea of meeting a pulmonologist who can help us.kindly suggest
Female | 12
It is best to have your daughter evaluated by a pulmonologist. The pulmonologist may recommend a variety of tests to assess her breathlessness, including a chest x-ray, spirometry, a complete blood count (CBC), and a complete metabolic panel. Depending on the results of the tests, the pulmonologist will recommend additional tests, such as an electrocardiogram (ECG) or a pulmonary function test (PFT). Additionally, the doctor can recommend taking medications to help manage her symptoms. It is important to monitor her closely for any changes in her breathing patterns.

I’m on a medication that causes hyperkalemia if I take NSAIDs with it. I have very high inflammation, Doctors have prescribed Naproxen, Ibuprofen, Toradol and Meloxicam. They all made me ill for days. Is there any medication for inflammation that won’t interact with Hyperkalemia?
Female | 39
You are having’ medications that are causing issues with your potassium levels. You need to avoid NSAIDs such as Naproxen, Ibuprofen, Toradol, and Meloxicam because they can aggravate your high potassium levels. You may discuss with your doctor the possibility of using Acetaminophen or Celecoxib medications, as they usually do not affect potassium levels. Consult your doctor before making any changes to your medication routine.

This question is about my mother, 60 years old, with influenza type A that unfortunately led to viral pneumonia. She's hospitalized for the past 4 days, her flu seems to be subsiding, but the pneumonia is not. I am worried and I just wanted to know if she's gonna be alright doctor.
Female | 60
Viral pneumonia takes longer to get better compared to the flu. I’m glad that she is recovering from the flu. Symptoms of pneumonia include difficulty breathing, productive cough, and chest pain. To cure the infection, antibiotics will be administered among other drugs. She needs to have enough rest and time too. Therefore, follow the doctors’ instructions and be patient with her.

Female | 30
A viral infection could explain your fever, headache, and cough. Fevers help fight infections. Headaches and coughs often come with viruses too. Rest up and drink lots of fluids. Acetaminophen can ease fever and headache pain. But if symptoms linger or worsen, see a pulmonologist promptly.

Severe cough body chest pain
Female | 41
Coughing so hard together with chest pain can be due to one thing or another such as a bad cold flu, or pneumonia which could be even worse. To get through this better, make sure you get enough sleep, drink a lot of fluids, and consider using a humidifier. However, if your symptoms are the same, consult a pulmonologist.

Hello, good day. I have shortness of breath in the bronchi. The doctor prescribed me Salbutamol inhaler, lesetrin lukastin, bronchodilator Ansimar for allergies. I used these drugs yesterday. I masturbated today. Does masturbation affect these drugs? Does masturbation damage the bronchi?
Kişi | 30
Taking the meds your doctor gave for breathing trouble and allergies is key for managing symptoms. About your question on self-pleasure, it doesn't affect those meds or hurt your air tubes. Self-pleasure is normal and doesn't damage the lungs. Follow your doctor's advice and take meds as instructed. If worried about your health, talk openly with a pulmonologist.
