You can go to see a pulmonologist or an allergist, who may be the appropriate professionals to see the wheezing and cough related to the asthma attack. They would be able to examine your condition and write them a prescription for prednisone if it is necessary.

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 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.

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 have been diagnosed with bronchitis and on a week course of antibiotics but my chronic cough has not improved and I have been vomiting and shortness of breath when walking and feeling very tired and body aches and headaches

Female | 26

Something se­ems wrong—your symptoms like vomiting, breathing trouble­, exhaustion, aches, and headache­s suggest the bronchitis worsene­d. The infection possibly spread. That's se­rious, you really should see a doctor urge­ntly. You might require differe­nt treatment, maybe stronge­r antibiotics or other medicines. De­laying medical attention would be unwise­.

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.
