Answered on 23rd May '24

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.

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.

I have been waking up a lot while sleeping the past few days. I work nights so I sleep during the day and I laid down this morning to sleep and then everytime I was about to fall asleep I felt like I wasn’t breathing

Male | 24

You could have sle­ep apnea, where­ breathing stops briefly during slumber. Classic signs: waking ofte­n at night, feeling breathle­ss before slee­p. It's vital to consult a physician, who'll propose remedie­s. Side sleeping or spe­cial masks frequently ease­ the issue.

I am a 47 year old male i had post thyroidectomy and recently got a CT scan and it shows subcentrimetric nodules scattered in the lungs so what does that mean

Male | 47

Following your thyroid surgery and the CT scan, some small nodules were spotted in your lungs. These are very common little growths that hardly ever have any symptoms attached to them. They could have been caused by many things such as infections or past illnesses. In most cases, no action needs to be taken concerning these growths but you need to keep visiting a doctor to check up on them frequently. If you start feeling unusual in any way like continuous coughing or struggling to breathe, please inform your physician immediately.

Female | 35

CHEST COUGH can be due to several causes. It can be due to viral infection, allergies, or asthma. If you have a fever or difficulty breathing, see a doctor.. Drink plenty of fluids and rest to help the body fight infection. Avoid smoking and use a humidifier to ease cough.. Over-the-counter cough medicine can help, but ask a doctor first.

I m 24yrs female. From past 6month l, I have frequent cough and cold. Now I m feeling so weak. Also in past 1year I faint 3times. I m so worried. Why this happened to me? Currently I m feeling so weak. While standing or walking I had some vibration feeling in my head.

Female | 24

Weakness, frequent coughs and colds, and fainting can have various causes. These symptoms might indicate low iron levels in your blood, known as anemia. Feeling tired or light-headed are common sign of iron deficiency. You should eat iron-rich foods like spinach, lentils, and meat, drink plenty of water, and rest when needed. If these steps don't help after some time, seek medical advice as soon as possible, as it could be something serious that needs urgent attention.

ive been coughing 3 weeks already. last week i got consultation from doctor and been diagnosed lung infection. All the medication are finished. and now my heart/chest pain. and feel heavy to breathe.

Female | 23

Chest pains and breath problems may occur sometimes after getting a lung infection. Keep in mind that it could be inflammation in your lungs or heart. And also don’t forget that it may lead to critical consequences if not treated immediately.
