I understand you are suffering from COPD with viral pneumonia, anemia, and TCP. Eating smaller meals in addition to cutting down on hot foods could be the best choice for you. Make sure to properly take your medications and drink plenty of fluids. If the problem continues consult a pulmonologist.

My foster father is having slight pain on his left side of chest. Since 6 months or so. I would like to know what it could be.
Male | 62
Constant light pain on the left side of the chest for a period not shorter than half and year may have many causes, starting from musculoskeletal disorders to heart-related diseases. Your foster father should also seek professional advice from a cardiologist to query through his heart history and check it out, via tests such as an ECG of X-ray for the identification of its cause. He should get prompt medical attention to rule out any serious conditions and ensure his health.

Breathing problem not able to eat food feel uncomfortable
Female | 63
You might have asthma, a medical problem where breathing is difficult and eating becomes hard. Typical symptoms of the illness are an inability to breathe normally and the chest feeling tight. Asthma, a chronic respiratory illness, can be aggravated by allergies to house dust or animal hair. Medication issued by the doctor, avoiding triggers, and taking smaller meals can be the ways to cope with this. It is essential to take advice from a pulmonologist for the appropriate treatment.

I experience chest & back pains when I cough
Female | 17
This might be an indication of a respiratory infection, pneumonia, and bronchitis. Another reason could be muscle strain resulting from too much coughing. A pulmonologist should be consulted.

My mother is 68th yr old and have cough issue, we meditate her properly nd have completed every possible test regarding cough, all test reports are normal. She couldn't sleep an hour properly Plz help us.
Female | 68
Coughing for a long time can still appear despite the normal test results because of other causes such as postnasal drip or acid reflux. These problems can lead to the throat getting more irritated and the cough lasting longer. To support her in getting more sleep, you may want to raise her head while she is sleeping and make the room humid. Besides that, avoiding bad triggers such as smoke or strong odors can be useful. If the situation persists, a visit to either a pulmonologist or allergist might be a good thing.

I have cold fever and my right side chest just paining little bit.. I want some medicine to suggest me for recover..
Male | 30
A fever and chest pain suggest a chest infection. Viral or bacterial infections often cause this. Take ibuprofen for pain relief. Acetaminophen helps reduce fever. Drink plenty of fluids. Get enough rest. If symptoms don't improve or worsen, see a pulmonologist for evaluation. They can determine the cause and proper treatment.

I took promethazine dm syrup with diflucan for my sinus infection and bronchitis
Other | 28
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'm having breathing problem, chest pain,back pain and dry cough
Female | 26
I suggest visiting a pulmonologist within the shortest run for your breathing problem and dry cough. These symptoms may mean a respiratory infection or something that can progress to more serious problems such as asthma or bronchitis. For your chest and back pain, however, see a consultant orthopedic specialist who will discover and treat muscle and bone problems as needed.

Being 29 and having this problem might be caused by a common cold or even allergies. Some other possibilities include asthma or acid reflux. If the cough continues for more than a few weeks or if you are coughing up blood, it is essential to consult a pulmonologist.

Sir, my ESR is 64 or there is infection in the right region in the x-ray, do I have TB? And I am on antibiotics (IV Fluid) but the infection has still not gone down, so what should I do next?
Female | 23
You expressed worry about tuberculosis. TB affects blood test results like ESR, causing high readings. It creates infections visible on X-rays too. However, these signs are not exclusive to TB. Various infections or diseases produce similar effects. The antibiotics not clearing the infection is concerning. It suggests the need for different medication or further tests. Finding the root cause is vital.

My boyfriend (age 27) has had this all day every day hacking/throat clearing cough with mucus since January... I've been begging him since to get it checked. He waited 4 months until April & finally went. Well, the chest x-ray came back clear. But then why is he still coughing?? I'm exhausted of this, not knowing what it is, but hearing it all day every day, anxious beyond belief while he claims he's "fine" when it's not normal.
Male | 27
Even though his chest Xray came back clear, ruling out obvious lung abnormalities or infections. STill other causes like allergies, postnasal drip, GERD, asthma, or chronic bronchitis could still be responsible. Encourage him to follow up with a medical professional for further evaluation and testing to identify the underlying cause of his symptoms. Taking his cough seriously and seeking medical attention is important for appropriate treatment and relief.

The tests show you may have a sickness. Your body is fighting it. The TB medicine is helping, but sicknesses can take time to go away. Keep taking your medicine like the doctor said. Tell the doctor if you feel new things. Stay hopeful! Follow what the doctor says.

Male | 26
Medications for TB commonly bring about changes in mood such as crankiness. Having junk meals while under TB drugs could worsen the situation. Ensure your brother eats nourishing food. If he still gets angry easily, you should consult his doctor.

I am a 50 year old I feel short of breath and sweat for a while. Treatment is still going on since last 3 years
Male | 50
From the symptoms you are describing, it seems like you are having shortness of breath and sweating a lot. These might be indications that something is wrong with your heart. Often, the heart is the one that is not functioning properly and as a result, it can produce these symptoms. A pulmonologist will probably recommend a series of tests to pinpoint the issue. The guidance of the doctor would be eminent to your health.

Hi I'm Sheila I am 32 yrs old...I have blocked nose and cough ,2days before it's dry cough.. yesterday I feel little bit cold and I take Himalaya(koflet syrup) and maxigesicPE (CAPLETS). WHAT SHOULD I DO NOW?
Female | 32
It seems you have the common cold. A stuffed nose, dry cough, and feeling chilly are the usual signs. These signs often come from viruses that spread easily. Good you took the koflet syrup and maxigesicPE pills. Rest up, drink lots of liquids, and try using a humidifier to help with your stuffed nose. If you feel worse or your symptoms stay, best to see a pulmonologist.

I have a cold or flu or covid and my asthma is a lot worse than it has ever been. I am wheezing constantly and my reliever inhaler is not reducing the wheeze at all. I have a lot of mucus stuck in my chest and constantly coughing does not seem to be getting rid of the mucus and I think the mucus is causing me to wheeze constantly
Female | 34
Wheezing may be due to the mucus in your chest that is obstructing the air passage. The coughing may not be enough to dislodge the mucus. Adherence to your inhaler prescription is crucial. Sipping enough fluids and taking a humidifier can ease the mucus. Get medical help from a pulmonologist if the situation gets worse.

Recently I have been diagnosed with pleural thickening RT CP in x-ray
Male | 25
Pleural fibrosis results in thickening of the lungs lining and further development of breath problems and other symptoms. It may occur as a result of several different things like being exposed to asbestos or being infected by a certain bacterium or virus. I will recommend you see a pulmonodigist who can assess the exact condition and recommend a proper treatment plan.
