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.

Male | 17
This can cause symptoms such as coughing, chest pains, and coughing up blood. Persons under TB medication are not encouraged to use creatine or whey proteins since it alter how the body responds to the drugs. Concentrate on the treatment plan provided by your doctor and also eat a balanced diet that will help in fighting the infection. Continue going to the gym but don’t take any supplements that may affect the healing process of TB within your body.

The last 3 nights I have woken up choking for air. I'm really scared this night be sleep apnea although my symptoms are more like acid reflux. I'm 38 and very slim. Do you think this is a low chance?
Female | 38
At 20 and 130 pounds, sleep apnea is less likely but possible. However, acid reflux can cause similar choking feelings. Reflux happens when stomach acid backs up into the food pipe. To help: avoid heavy, spicy meals before bed. Raise the head of your bed. Eat smaller meals during the day. Talk to a pulmonologist if you're still concerned.

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.

Male | 2 month
Bacche mein balgam jamne se khaansi, thaaki, ya breathing mein dikkat ho sakti hai. Yeh aksar viral infections ke natije mein hota hai. Ceclor drops do din se diye hain, lekin agar improvement nahi ho raha, to kuch aur samasya ho sakti hai. Aap garam paani ya steam breathing se comfort de sakte hain. Agar bacche ka khana-pina ya neend disturb hai, ya phir koi aur serious symptoms hain, to zaroor doctor se milna chahiye. Achi tarah se diagnose karna aur sahi treatment lena zaroori hai.

Your cough sounds very intense. A severe cough can signify illnesses like chest infections, throat infections, allergies, or asthma. Stay hydrated, use a humidifier, and take cough medicine if required. If it persists, see a pulmonologist. Severe coughing fits are difficult. Coughs sometimes indicate underlying conditions. Persistent coughing warrants medical attention. Remedies like fluids and humidifiers provide temporary relief.
