Answered on 28th Oct '24

Asthma may be the cause of your breathing problems, making it feel like your lungs aren't functioning properly. This condition can lead to symptoms such as wheezing and coughing. Common triggers include allergies and exercise. If prescribed by your doctor, an inhaler can help open your airways and ease breathing difficulties. If you don't notice any improvement within a few days, consult a pulmonologist.

An HRCT scan, recommended by your doctor, allows them to view your body and identify the possible cause of your shortness of breath. This scan can reveal issues like infections, inflammation, or lung scars. Based on the results, your doctor will suggest the most suitable treatment, such as medications or other therapies.

Male | 46

No, asthma inhalers are not known to cause cancer. In fact, asthma inhalers are a vital part of managing asthma symptoms and reducing the risk of asthma attacks. However, excessive use of certain types of inhalers may cause some side effects, such as oral thrush or hoarseness. It is important to use inhalers as prescribed by a doctor and to discuss any concerns with them.

I have been coughing a lot for the past three days with soar throat...I went to the dispensary and I was given Lotide & prednisolone ....is this a right medicine for me?

Male | 35

These symptoms often happe­n when you have a virus infection. Lotide­ cough syrup can help your throat feel be­tter and stop coughing so much. Prednisolone me­dicine is a steroid that can reduce­ swelling in your throat.

It's important to inform your healthcare provider about any medications you're taking, especially antibiotics like flucloxacillin and ampicillin, as they may affect the results of your chest scan. Your doctor will advise you on whether it's safe to proceed with the scan while on these medications, considering your current health condition. Always follow your doctor's guidance regarding medical procedures.

Hi I have asthma and i have been quite breathless tonight could you help please

Female | 29

 Asthma inflames and narrows airways, making breathing difficult. Use­ your inhaler as directed. Sit straight and bre­athe slowly, deeply. If still struggling, se­ek medical help or go to the ER. Control asthma with re­gular check-ups and medications.

You should consult a pulmonologist for proper diagnosis of your condition and subsequent management. Allergies, infections, and asthma are some of the causes that can lead to coughing and sputum.

I am a 26 year old man . every night cough gets accumulated in my nose and in morning when I get up and wash my face sneezing occurs about 4 to 5 times and nose gets cleared up .... cough is transparent and in liquid from....in day time no cough..... sometimes 10 to20 times sneezing occurs.... it seems that this is my daily routine.....what to do

Male | 26

You're dealing with allergic rhinitis, which means your body is sensitive to triggers like dust, pollen, or pet dander, causing sneezing and nasal congestion. At night, lying down can cause mucus buildup, leading to morning symptoms. Using air purifiers, keeping your living space clean, and avoiding triggers can help manage your symptoms.

i recently got tested for covid and was positive and i haven’t had a fever for 48 hours but i took another test and it came back positive but have no symptoms just a sore throat from dry cough am I good to hang with friends?

Male | 19

It's good that you haven't had a fever for 48 hours, that's a positive sign. Nonetheless, the sore throat you may be able to catch from a dry cough may as well mean that you are infected and may still be contagious. Staying at home and keeping away from people is the best way to protect other people from infection. Continue with the fluids, take your rest, and check your symptoms regularly.
