Difficulty in breathing, production of mucus and chest congestion could be a result of a respiratory infection or an allergy. A pulmonologist should be consulted to diagnose and treat the condition.

Since couple of days, I ’m suffering with cold cough and fever .. to treat I referred previous prescription of my family doctor and took following medicines - Zyrocold - 1-0-1 Zyzal - 1-0-1 Solvin - 1-0-1 Calpol - as & when required Mucinac - 1-1-1 but still I’m not recovering My sugar and thyroid is in limits with regular medicines

Taking medicine­s didn't help you feel be­tter, that's concerning. Colds, coughs and feve­rs are often viral, requiring tailore­d treatment. Stay hydrated, we­ll-rested and nourished. Howe­ver, revisit your doctor for re-e­valuation. Tests may reveal the­ issue, allowing adjusted treatme­nt. Struggling through illness alone risks complications.

I want to know about the TB

Female | 55

TB, a common shorthand term for tuberculosis, is a life-threatening disease caused by bacteria that mainly affect the lungs. Humans with TB might experience, amongst others, the following peculiar signs: prolonged cough, chest pain, losing weight, and fatigue. The transmission occurs when a TB patient coughs or sneezes with a built-in airway and thus spreads the bacteria from person to person.

Sir/Mam I have been diagnosed with Prominence of broncho vascular markings.?Few tiny calcification at both hilar area in chest and I have tested Tuberculosis Negative and i do not have any kind of symptoms I do not smoke. What might be the cause of those scar? as I am planning to go abroad for job will I be able to clear GAMCA Medical?

Male | Shikhar Bomzan

Even though you've tested negative for Tuberculosis and have no symptoms, these markings might be due to previous inflammation or infection. It's important to follow up with your doctor to make sure everything is okay before going abroad for a job. Get a thorough check-up and any additional tests your doctor recommends.

I was not feeling well for 2-3 days after that i got 103° F fever and one day later i got constant chest pain that is not going since 2 days along with throat, nose and chest congestion. I am not any diabetics patient. My fever is ok now after still chest pain and congestion in nose, throat is not going completely and also i am feeling tired.

Female | 45

A respiratory infe­ction probably caused your symptoms. Fever, che­st pain, congestion in throat, nose, and chest, along with tire­dness. Viruses or bacteria usually cause­ these infections. Re­st up, drink lots of fluids, and use over-the-counte­r meds for congestion and pain relie­f if needed. But if symptoms pe­rsist or worsen, see a doctor.

You may have symptoms such as expectoration of mucus, a feeling of fullness in the chest, or difficulty in breathing. This could be due to airway infection or inflammation. It is very important to go to a medical practitioner who will be able to give you the right therapy and advice that are specifically suited to your complaint.

My mother has sarcoidosis fibrotic ILD patient.last night her oxygen saturation 87 to 90. But physically she is normal .plz suggest what should i do.

Female | 66

The scarred and stiff lung tissue in sarcoidosis fibrotic ILD makes it hard for air to get in.  If her oxygen level drops below normal, she does not have enough oxygen in her body. It can be really bad. Even if she seems fine, low oxygen can hurt her. Assure that her doctor’s instructions for using oxygen are strictly followed. In case there is no improvement, call for emergency medical services immediately.

My name is Amal 31 years old. I have some breathing problem and using Serflo 125 synchrobreathe. now in heavy rain i have cold and cough please suggest best medicine for nebulizer

Male | 31

Serflo 125 synchrobreathe is good but you need something more. You may want to try using Budecort respules with your nebulizer. These will help reduce any swelling inside your air passages which should make them wider and easier to breathe through. Do not forget about following the prescribed dosage exactly as instructed. But do visit your doctor before starting the medication.

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.
