I have problem in breathing
Male | 22
Breathing difficulties can occur for various reasons. Some common signs include shortness of breath, wheezing, and a tight feeling in the chest. Causes can range from asthma and allergies to anxiety. If you're experiencing breathing difficulties, try sitting upright, breathing slowly, and staying calm. If the problem persists, seek a pulmonologist's advice to identify the cause and receive appropriate treatment.

Hlo sir last 2 years i have been diagnosed with tb..tb is cure but xray report slight bronchovesicular prominance are seen in peri hillar and lower zone..i always have throat ireeitation and back throat mucus produce...recently i am going to married does it affect my life
Male | 23
You had TB some time ago, and now you're worried about your lungs and throat. The X-ray showed a slight prominence, probably from the old TB. Throat irritation and mucus at the back are common issues nowadays. These shouldn't affect your marriage, but it's important to care for your health. To ease the irritated throat and mucus, stay hydrated, use a humidifier, or gargle with warm salt water. However, if the symptoms don't improve or worsen, see a pulmonologist for advice.

Hello doctor yesterday I feel mucus with blood and mucus is being contue till week before that I had a cough which is cured but only mucus came all the time but yesterday mucus with blood about five times but today normal mucus
Male | 26
You might have experienced some blood along with mucus. Quite often, after a cough, the throat gets irritated and blood vessels break, which makes the throat bloody. The blood is on the outside of the body but has no serious health implications. If you are frequently experiencing it, or you are having such problems as weakness, dizziness, or chest pain, consult a pulmonologist if it is for your peace of mind.

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'm 54 years old, male. I've been experiencing shortness of breath since about 8 days now. I've been on anti-hypertensive drugs - Amlodipine 10mg and Vasoprin for almost 15 years. Please what could be the possible cause for the shortness of breath and weakness?
Male | 54
These symptoms might be connected to heart problems or side effects from your medicines. When you can't breathe well, it could mean your heart or lungs aren't working their best. Go see a pulmonologist soon to figure out what's causing it and find a solution.

My boyfriend (age 27) has had this all day every day hacking/throat clearing cough with mucus since January... I've been begging him since to get it checked. He waited 4 months until April & finally went. Well, the chest x-ray came back clear. But then why is he still coughing?? I'm exhausted of this, not knowing what it is, but hearing it all day every day, anxious beyond belief while he claims he's "fine" when it's not normal.
Male | 27
Even though his chest Xray came back clear, ruling out obvious lung abnormalities or infections. STill other causes like allergies, postnasal drip, GERD, asthma, or chronic bronchitis could still be responsible. Encourage him to follow up with a medical professional for further evaluation and testing to identify the underlying cause of his symptoms. Taking his cough seriously and seeking medical attention is important for appropriate treatment and relief.

I am 17 year old female, I had a common cold that started with sore throat week ago and now I don't have a cold anymore, I didn't have cough during the cold (my throat was sore for the first 2 days but then on third day my nose started to be stuffy and I didn't have sore throat or cough at all). But like 2 days ago I started to feel not pain, but like weird sensation in area of bronchi, but its not pain, just like a sensation I feel when I breathe. Its not all the time but I noticed it. I don't have cough, or any other symptoms and my cold is like 90% gone at this point, but I don't know what that sensation might come from and I don't think its bronchitidis since I dont cough, I dont have fever, and I feel generally good, just sometimes when I breathe I feel that sensation in area of bronchi as I mentioned and it doesnt make me cough, just like sometimes to slightly make that cough sound but its not cough if you know what I mean. What could be the cause and how can I get rid of it? Also, I dont know if its going to help but I sleep on my left side every night and lately I think it caused me a bit of pain in shoulder/upper chest area from being in that position all night long. So perhaps could It be caused my some pulled muscle or something from sleeping in wrong position ? Thank you for your answer.
Female | 17
Your case seems like a typical cold getting better. The breathing issue near the bronchi may come from inflammation after the cold. Sleeping on the left side likely caused muscle discomfort in the shoulder and chest regions. Rest up, drink lots of fluids, and practice good posture to ease muscle pain. However, if bronchial sensation persists after a few days, see a pulmonologist just to be safe. Get well soon!

Hello dr I am Suraj Gond from Azamgarh Up .I am suffering from cough and cold near about 5 days now time I feel some coughblood near about 3 days.tell me some ideas.
Male | 24
The problem you've got could be a respiratory infection. Coughing up blood or hemoptysis is when your blood vessels in the airways are irritated thus, the blood is released. Rest. Drink. Fluids. A hard no for smoking and polluted air. You can also use a humidifier, it will moisturize your throat and alleviate your cough. Nevertheless, in case the symptoms persist, or get worse, you are to consult a doctor for a proper evaluation and treatment.

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.

I believe I have a pretty nasty cold or possibly flu-lke virus and i just want to make sure that my symptoms dont require further medical intervention. It started Friday night 03/22/24 with a severe sore throat, post nasal drip, and diarrhea. The progression of symptoms has gone from severe throat pain to pain and congestion/runniness and dry bloody sinuses with a sinus headache, to some sinus congestion/runniness with coughing. I do not have a sore throat now and i dont have diarrhea but i do have nausea which ive had the whole time but it seems a little worse now, and i have significant fatigue and muscle weakness. My eyes are also dry and crusty and very bloodshot. Im not really having trouble breathing, and ive had a very low grade fever/no fever throughout the entire duration of this illness.
Female | 23
It appears a viral infection, like flu, troubles you. The sore throat, post nasal drip, diarrhea, sinus issues, cough, nausea, and fatigue - all common viral signs. Stay hydrated well; rest up properly; use saline rinses or OTC meds for symptomatic reprieve. If symptoms worsen or concerns arise, consult a pulmonologist promptly.

You had surgery in your lungs and bronchitis 90 days ago to get rid of a hydatid cyst. It's normal to have a cough and some pain even after surgery. Coughing could be leftover irritation in your lungs that causes the problem. The pain could be your body still healing. Rest, drink plenty of fluids, and follow up with your pulmonologist to ensure everything is okay.

Pain in the chest, difficulty in breathing, and constant yawning can be the cause of concern. These might be the result of a number of things, for instance, asthma, anxiety, or even anemia. It is crucial to ensure that your lungs are getting enough oxygen. If you have these symptoms, seek medical advice from a cardiologist for a proper diagnosis.

I'm having cough especially while sleeping it gets more it never leaves to sleep
Female | 30
Night-time coughing can disturb your sleep. It might be caused by irritants in the air or conditions like post-nasal drip or acid reflux. Either way, it’s frustrating! You can try propping your head up while you sleep, and a humidifier might help, too. Staying hydrated is also a good idea. However, if the coughing doesn’t go away, talk to a pulmonologist about it.
