Answered on 25th July '24

These symptoms, along with yellow phlegm with a foul smell, could indicate a lung infection or pneumonia. Both viruses and bacteria can cause these issues. It's crucial to see a doctor quickly for a proper diagnosis and treatment. They can prescribe the right medication, likely antibiotics, to combat the infection.

I am not any diabetics patient. My fever is ok now after still chest pain and congestion in nose, throat is not going completely and also i am feeling tired.

Female | 45

A respiratory infe­ction probably caused your symptoms. Fever, che­st pain, congestion in throat, nose, and chest, along with tire­dness. Viruses or bacteria usually cause­ these infections. Re­st up, drink lots of fluids, and use over-the-counte­r meds for congestion and pain relie­f if needed. But if symptoms pe­rsist or worsen, see a doctor.

Difficulty in breathing, production of mucus and chest congestion could be a result of a respiratory infection or an allergy. A pulmonologist should be consulted to diagnose and treat the condition.

Hello, good day. I have shortness of breath in the bronchi. My doctor prescribed me the inhaler Salbutamol and the tablet medicine allergy lesetrin lukastin ansimar. How long after using the inhaler can I drink these tablets? Is it harmful to use these medicines with an interval of 1 hour. Or how long between medicines? must be time.?

Kişi | 30

Asthma or allergies can be a cause of this. To open the airways quickly, Salbutamol inhalers play an important role. On the other hand, Leukotriene Modifiers such as Montelukast take longer working time as they reduce inflammation gradually over the airway passages. No problem if combined use is considered safe by the doctor. Both drugs follow medical prescriptions strictly.

Shortness of breath whenever coughing Dry cough Fever immediately after cough Cough not constant Cough comes and go

Male | 35

If you start to cough, become breathless soon after, and get a fever with a dry cough, that might be the reason for lung infections like pneumonia. The cough might happen periodically. These germs such as bacteria and viruses are to blame for it. Taking rest, drinking enough fluids, and talking to a doctor for help are the treatment steps which can include antibiotics if it is bacterial. Be sure to get a lot of rest and drink plenty of fluids.

It is recommended that you seek the advice of a pulmonologist if you have been having symptoms of cough for more than 2 weeks. Chronic cough is a common symptom that can be related to various respiratory diseases like asthma, bronchitis, and lung cancer.

How to take sevfurane 50 inhaler? After taking sevfurane does a person stop breathing? What if a person drinks the sevfurane?

Female | 27

Inhale the sevfurane 50 by breathing in slowly and deeply while pressing down on the inhaler. Do not stop breathing after taking it as it should not make you stop breathing. If a person drinks sevfurane, they may feel dizzy, confused, have a slow heartbeat or even slip into a coma. In such a case, one should be rushed to the hospital without any delays. Drinking sevfurane is extremely dangerous and could lead to loss of life.

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.

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.

Female | 55

You are not doing so well with your breathing, particularly when you are lying down or doing activities. These symptoms can be the result of, for example, heart problems or lung problems. Sometimes, conditions as heart failure or asthma might be the reason for this. A doctor's visit is the most reliable way to get the right diagnosis and treatment.

Male | 83

Extreme fatigue and loss of appetite could be caused by COPD. Sometimes people may talk while asleep, be restless, or become unresponsive during this period. This means that the body is extremely weak. Right now, what is most important is to make sure he is relaxed all the time, don’t force him to eat too much but give him small amounts of food often.
