Sudden Nighttime Breathlessness: Causes and Solutions
I'm suffering with sudden breathless at night
Pulmonologist
Answered on 26th Sept '24
Nighttime breathing troubles can feel frightening. Airways narrowing from asthma is one potential cause, making inhalation difficult. Heart conditions and anxiety disorders are other possibilities leading to this issue. Consulting a pulmonologist is vital for precise diagnosis and suitable treatment recommendation, enabling improved nocturnal respiration.

Hello doctor I am 21 year old male I am suffering from irritation in back of my throat and mild whizzing sound when I exhale forcefully, it usually happens at night, and I previously experienced 3,4 times shortness of breath and excess mucus when I inhale smoke or dust accidentally. what is the problem?? Please reply
Male | 21
Asthma symptoms can involve throat irritation, wheezing, shortness of breath, and excess mucus - especially when exposed to smoke or dust. Asthma is an airway issue where inflammation and narrowing happen. This makes breathing harder. It's crucial you see a doctor to get properly diagnosed and a treatment plan outlined. This may involve medications like inhalers that help manage symptoms and prevent asthma attacks from occurring. Your description sounds like you might be experiencing asthma, so getting it checked out by a pulmonologist is important.

Female | 30
You might have a viral infection. Fever, cough, cold, body pains, and neck swelling are fairly common with these infections. The virus is being fought by your body, which is manifesting these symptoms. Resting, staying hydrated, and taking over-the-counter medications for fever and pain are helpful in this case. If your symptoms get worse or last longer, you should visit a doctor.

I am having cough which looks more allergic. And phlegm and wheezing sound only appears when I coughs. It's like someone is choking you when you have the cough. It really hurts my throat and head while coughing. And sometimes maybe due to my panic, cough results in cough syncope. I also have antral gastritis. I have been diagnosed with bronchitis 6 months back. My chest Xray shows only small prominence in right lungs and rest is normal. CT is normal, XRay is normal. Only my TLC count is elavated to 17000 and however eosphil and basophil count is normal. I am slightly anemic. According to my doc, my body is unable to absorb iron. My O2 and BP all are normal during my cough episode. However, I feel tremor throughout my body and sometimes my hands and legs become pale while I cough. I am perfectly normal if I don't have the cough episodes. I also has slight GERD maybe due to antral gastritis.

I just recently got sick on the 12th and I thought it was getting better but know I feel like it’s getting worst I have a lot of pressure on my throat area anytime I exhale I tend to cough
Female | 28
A throat infection could be causing your breathing issues. Swollen glands create pressure in the throat, and coughing helps clear germs. Drinking warm water, resting, and gargling with salt water can relieve discomfort. If symptoms persist, see a pulmonologist.

Tuberculosis (TB) is a serious infection that mainly affects the lungs. Symptoms include coughing, chest pain, weight loss, and fatigue. TB is a contagious disease that spreads through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes. Your uncle should stay in his room until he finishes his treatment, as TB can spread to others. To prevent this, certain measures should be followed. It's important to follow your doctor’s advice to protect both yourself and your uncle.

Little amount of blood with phlegm
Male | 19
This type of incident can occur due to the inflammation in your airways caused by a cough or infection. The blood could be in the form of light streaks or spots. Generally speaking, it's nothing serious, but it's a good idea to visit a doctor anyway. Be sure to drink a lot of water, and take a break, and if it doesn't go away or gets worse, contact a pulmonologist for precaution.

I took promethazine dm syrup with diflucan for my sinus infection and bronchitis

You should not combine it with diflucan sinus and bronchitis infection medications. Promethazine DM syrup is a drug that contains an antihistamine and a cough suppressant, while diflucan is a medication with antifungal action. It is advisable to get a prescriber's advice before taking any medicine and follow their patient care course accordingly. For sinus infection and bronchitis, turning to a pulmonologist or an ENT specialist is recommended.

I have played national matches in boxing and wrestling. I had severe chest pain in May. If I show in the hospital, in the x-ray, it will show water in the chest, after fluid tapping, Tb will be found in that water, I was under a lot of mental stress. Because I have to take care of my house. I have been taking the medicine given by the doctor since one month, I have started boxing and wrestling training, I am feeling a little better but I am not feeling any strength in my body, can I take creatine to get strength? Please help me a little
Male | 26
Pneumothorax (TB) might be the water inside your chest. This is due to the fact that the immune system, when it is weak, can bring on the symptoms such as chest pain and tiredness. While taking medications as prescribed should be your priority, do not take creatine without your doctor’s approval because it may worsen your condition. However, for now, make sure you are resting enough, eating properly, and gradually getting back into your regular training routine.
