Can my fever and cough be from rain squinting?
my name is nikhil my age is 20 I have fever and cough I am having fever day and night since last 3 days. I have squinted in the rain many times

Pulmonologist
Answered on 26th Aug '24
Fever and cough are typically part of the body's natural defense against infection. When you get wet in the rain, your body gets cold, which makes it a lot easier to catch a cold. Keep it warm, drink a lot of fluids, get some rest, and you can also take some over-the-counter fever medicine if you like. If your symptoms become more severe or worsen, visit a doctor.

I am 18 years old and my question is can I share room TB patien like my uncle
Male | 18
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.

Starting about 6 days ago, I began having a swollen and sore throat (only painful and swollen on right side.) Then I started having coughing fits, coughing up stuff, and having chest pains. My nose also goes back and forth from runny to stuffy. I’ve been taking mucus relief medicine, throat spray, nasal congestion spray, and Tylenol. Nothing is working. What’s wrong with me
Female | 21
You might have a respiratory infection, which is a viral infection. The infection could result in a sore throat, coughing, chest pain, and nasal congestion. The use of mucus relief, throat spray, and nasal congestion spray is good for symptom relief, but if it has not improved, you may need to see a pulmonologist for further evaluation and possibly antibiotics. The doctor can do this if there is any bacterial infection that may be present.

আমার ছেলের কাশী কিছুতেই সারছে না, কখনও বেশি হয়, কখনও আবার একদম বন্ধ হয়ে যায়, প্রায় 1 বছর ধরে হচ্ছে, চেস্ট x Ray করা হয়েছে, কোনো প্রবলেম নেই। আবহাওয়া খারাপ হলে কাশী বাড়ে আবার কমে যায়। অন্য কোনো প্রবলেম নেই। খেলাধুলা করলে বা সাইকেল চালালে কাশী একদম হয় না। বসে থাকলে কখনও কখনও হয়।

It sounds like your son's cough is persistent and fluctuates in intensity, regardless of a chest x-ray showing no issues. Weather changes seem to affect it, with worsening during bad weather. Surprisingly, no coughing during physical activities like sports or cycling, but sometimes occurs when sitting. It might be worth exploring further with a pulmonologist to understand the underlying cause.

Hi, my name is aiden i am 14 years old and I've been wondering if there something wrong with me when i lay down on my chest i find it a lil hard to breathe sometimes i wonder if its axizety or i might be overthinking but other then that ive been having axizety making it hard for me to sleep and i just feels like my eyes are close but im not getting any sleep what should i do
Male | 14
When you lay on your chest and it feels hard to get air in, that could be from anxiety. Anxiety also makes it difficult for people to sleep well at night. You can learn how to control your breathing when talking about it with them and other ways of calming down too if they know about it. Try doing things before going to bed like making a routine so that every time before sleep you will make sure that you get into bed more easily also practice good habits around sleep like not watching any screens an hour before bedtime because they keep awake longer which means fewer hours spent resting. If these symptoms stay or get worse then maybe it's time to see the doctor and tell them what’s been happening.

Based on your symptoms, it is crucial to visit a health provider as soon as possible. This might be an indication of strangulation or aspiration that poses grave consequences. It is recommended that you see an ENT specialist or pulmonologist immediately to get proper treatment.

Hello, i have aasthma since my childhood, im in my 20's now and thinking to add l arigine in my daily routine, 2.5gm daily. Will it be harmful or alright to counsume it?
Male | 23
L-arginine can assist certain individuals in their breathing, but for those with asthma, it might not be the optimal choice. L-arginine can set off asthma attacks in some people, rendering one to gasp more. It is crucial to consult your physician before commencing any novel supplement, particularly if you have asthma.

What happens if I marry a girl with asthma?
Male | 28
Marrying someone with asthma can be a loving and supportive experience. Asthma is often characterized by breathlessness, wheezing, or tightness in the chest, typically triggered by allergens, exercise, or respiratory infections. Having asthma under control is essential; medications and lifestyle adjustments can significantly improve quality of life. Encouraging your partner to follow a treatment plan, avoid triggers, and maintain regular check-ups with a healthcare provider can be beneficial. Open communication about their condition fosters understanding and helps manage potential challenges.

These symptoms could be respiratory infection, bronchitis, pneumonia, or other conditions. It's possible that the initial treatment may not have fully resolved the underlying issue, or there may be another cause for your symptoms that requires further investigation. Check with your pulmonologist.

Since couple of days, I ’m suffering with cold cough and fever .. to treat I referred previous prescription of my family doctor and took following medicines - Zyrocold - 1-0-1 Zyzal - 1-0-1 Solvin - 1-0-1 Calpol - as & when required Mucinac - 1-1-1 but still I’m not recovering My sugar and thyroid is in limits with regular medicines
Female | 56
Taking medicines didn't help you feel better, that's concerning. Colds, coughs and fevers are often viral, requiring tailored treatment. Stay hydrated, well-rested and nourished. However, revisit your doctor for re-evaluation. Tests may reveal the issue, allowing adjusted treatment. Struggling through illness alone risks complications.

Iam 22 year old male I have common cold symptoms and I took antibiotics and analgesics But I had a cough when I put my head in pillow and excessive salivation
Male | 22
It seems that you are going through common cold symptoms such as a continuous cough when lying down and an increase in saliva. These signs usually result from nasal congestion or irritation of the throat. Even though antibiotics are efficient in destroying bacterial infections, they will not have any effect on viral diseases such as the common cold. There are also easy remedies available for OTC ones and combination with good hydration will relieve discomfort. If can't recur, if you encounter shortness of breath, or if you continue to have too much saliva, please confer with a pulmonologist for a complete review. Always, assuming the proper course by asking for good advice is a good way to get the right information and care.

Male | 25
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.

Fever, cough, headache and running nose
Male | 29
The fever is your body signaling you are sick, and the cough and nasal congestion are two signs of your respiratory system being affected. Drink a lot of fluids, rest well and if you feel you can take some over-the-counter medicines to help you feel better. Most of these cases just pass by themselves, but in case the opposite happens or if the discomfort lasts, go ask a pulmonologist for advice. They must carry out a more detailed assessment and apply the correct treatment.

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.

Female | 20
Oh no, now you have been in this bad condition for quite a long time! Having problems like coughing, fever with episodes of normal conditions, and sore throat can really make your life hard. Viruses are the main cause of these symptoms in life. Keep your body hydrated, and take breaks, just eat nutritious meals. Maintain a certain distance and instruct people to cover their coughs and sneezes. If it persists or worsens, consulting a pulmonologist is an essential thing to do.
