Pulmonologist

Answered on 29th Aug '24

When you show symptoms such as a fever, cough, and CRP levels that are too high, it might mean there is a serious infection in your body. The high platelet count may also be a sign of inflammation. It's vital to stick strictly to your doctor's instructions since they are most probably dealing with an infection at the moment. Keep them updated on any shifts in your symptoms, or if you're feeling worse. Rest, drink a lot of water, and take the medications as prescribed. If you see any signs of your symptoms worsening, contact a pulmonologist immediately.

Hi, I have put aquaphor in my nose for 2 years every night. I have recently stopped but wanted to know if I have it in my lungs i am really worried about it.

Female | 17

Aquaphor should not be your only treatment for nose dryness as it is not intended for long-term use. If you had it in your lungs, you could have a cough, shortness of breath, or pain in your chest. If you notice any of these symptoms, it is wise to visit a pulmonologist. They will be able to check your lungs and give you the correct treatment.

Having productive coughing for years and in black and white colour

Male | 39

Chronic coughing over extended periods and dark phlegm need medical attention to identify their causes which can be chronic bronchitis or lung cancer. A prompt visit to pulmonologist is strongly suggestable in case one experiences such severe symptoms. In a timely manner, treatment and help can be effective and bring about better results as well as enhanced qualities of life.

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.

Recently I have been diagnosed with pleural thickening RT CP in x-ray

Male | 25

Pleural fibrosis results in thickening of the lungs lining and further development of breath problems and other symptoms. It may occur as a result of several different things like being exposed to asbestos or being infected by a certain bacterium or virus. I will recommend you see a pulmonodigist who can assess the exact condition and recommend a proper treatment plan.

Hi, my name is aiden i am 14 years old and I've been wondering if there something wrong with me when i lay down on my chest i find it a lil hard to breathe sometimes i wonder if its axizety or i might be overthinking but other then that ive been having axizety making it hard for me to sleep and i just feels like my eyes are close but im not getting any sleep what should i do

Male | 14

When you lay on your chest and it feels hard to get air in, that could be from anxiety. Anxiety also makes it difficult for people to sleep well at night.  You can learn how to control your breathing when talking about it with them and other ways of calming down too if they know about it. Try doing things before going to bed like making a routine so that every time before sleep you will make sure that you get into bed more easily also practice good habits around sleep like not watching any screens an hour before bedtime because they keep awake longer which means fewer hours spent resting. If these symptoms stay or get worse then maybe it's time to see the doctor and tell them what’s been happening.

Been having a cough for 2 weeks finished my antibiotics I do vape

Female | 21

A respiratory specialist or pulmonologist might be the one to consult given a persistent cough for the past 14 days after you have completed the course of antibiotics. Vaping can aggravate the airways and increase respiratory problems; hence the doctors must do a thorough evaluation to put the conditions right.

I am looking after my dad that has end of life copd.hes not eating much very weak talks in his sleep and fidgety and is getting withdrawn from peopl

Male | 83

Extreme fatigue and loss of appetite could be caused by COPD. Sometimes people may talk while asleep, be restless, or become unresponsive during this period. This means that the body is extremely weak. Right now, what is most important is to make sure he is relaxed all the time, don’t force him to eat too much but give him small amounts of food often.

i'm been detect have influenza. Tamiflu are no longer have used to me. May i know any other medicine or option that can reduce the effect of influenza?

Male | 27

The flu is caused by a virus, not bacteria. It can make you feel sick with symptoms such as fever, cough, sore throat, and body aches. Since taking Tamiflu is not in the picture anymore, it is vital that you take good rest, drink lots of water, and take pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen to help get rid of the symptoms. These help to relieve illness and severe pain. Make sure to stay at home and avoid infecting other people with flu.

Fever and cough since 2days

Male | 23

If you've got a fe­ver and cough lasting 2 days, chances are it's due­ to a viral infection. Your body increases te­mperature to fight off the virus inte­rnally. Resting up, staying hydrated, and taking acetaminophe­n eases symptoms. Howeve­r, worsening issues or breathing trouble­s require prompt medical atte­ntion.
