Answered on 14th Aug '24

A chest infe­ction happens when germs e­nter the lungs. Breathing be­comes difficult. You might cough constantly, feel short of bre­ath, and experience­ chest discomfort. Viruses or bacteria fre­quently cause this condition. To alleviate­ symptoms, get plenty of rest, drink wate­r regularly, and use a humidifier. Additionally, inhaling ste­am or taking warm showers can provide relie­f. However, if symptoms worsen, it's crucial to se­ek medical attention from a pulmonologist.

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.

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 am 30 years old male and have cough and sore throat for 4 days. And also having head and chest pain during coughing. Taken himalaya koflet syrup, ginger tulsi tea but its not working. Please tell me what to do?

Male | 30

These are all signs of some breathing bug like cold or flu. Right now what will help most is to drink plenty of liquids, stay in bed as long as possible, and take something like Tylenol for the pain. If you don’t start feeling better soon or if things get worse instead, then go to a doctor to take a look at what’s going on with your body.

Male | 25

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.

I am using beclomethasone dipropionate and levosalbutamol sulphate rotocaps for my asthama i have asthma since i was 3 years old and that much of long term i am using it from 5 months facing severe asthama and using the rotocaps in frequently and i am losing my body weight very fastly and it is very tough to me to gain weight and my penis size also decreasing and also sperm low quantity is that the side effects for using it in long term and tell me the perfect solution for all me questions to over come it and live healthy without medication

Male | 22

It appears that you may be experiencing some worrying side effects as a result of using beclomethasone dipropionate and levosalbutamol sulfate rotocaps for your asthma. Rapid weight loss, reduced penis size, and low semen volume can be linked to these drugs’ long-term usage. These particular adverse reactions are probably caused by the steroids contained in the medication affecting your system. Hence, you should inform your physician about them so they can prescribe you a more suitable treatment plan for your asthma which won’t have these effects. Besides, the doctor might also recommend ways of gaining weight and supporting overall well-being.
