Remedies for Insomnia: High Heart Rate, Low Oxygen Levels
What to do if adult or old age is not able to sleep and has heat rate 122 and oxygen level 74

Pulmonologist
Answered on 6th Aug '24
If someone older can't sleep well and their heart beats rapidly at 122, with low oxygen at 74, there may be an issue. Symptoms like a racing pulse or poor oxygenation often stem from heart or lung problems. Seeking medical care promptly is crucial to pinpoint the exact underlying reason for these signs and receive appropriate treatment.

I’m sick and I have pneumonia and the doctor prescribed me 2 injections and suppositories but I’m afraid I don’t want them. Please help me what should I do?
Female | 14
Pneumonia is a serious lung infection making breathing difficult. Fever and cough come with pneumonia too. Doctors prescribe injections and suppositories to fight the infection. You must follow the doctor's advice for quick recovery. If injections scare you, discuss concerns with your doctor. They'll explain why treatments are needed and ease your worries. Getting proper treatment is crucial for overcoming pneumonia.

Breathing difficulties can occur for various reasons. Some common signs include shortness of breath, wheezing, and a tight feeling in the chest. Causes can range from asthma and allergies to anxiety. If you're experiencing breathing difficulties, try sitting upright, breathing slowly, and staying calm. If the problem persists, seek a pulmonologist's advice to identify the cause and receive appropriate treatment.

My 7-month-old daughter has coughed for almost 20 days. Some times it feels like a dry cough, and some time it feels like mucus. mostly she feels good but suddenly cough starts and feels like choking or unable to breathe, and this happens in phase 2 or 3 times in 24 hours.
Female | 7 months
A dry cough changing to mucus coughing may signal throat irritation or a cold. Difficulty breathing during coughing fits could mean mucus temporarily blocks her airways. Keep her hydrated. Use a humidifier in her room to loosen mucus. If coughing persists or worsens, seek medical attention from her pediatrician. This rules out other issues needing treatment.

My CT Scan report. Area of ground glass opacification is seen in the right lower lobe. A tiny subpleural nodule is seen in the right lung on image #4-46. What meant by it in easy and understandable words
Male | 32
Based on the CT scan report, here are a couple of findings:
Ground glass opacification in the right lower lobe: This refers to an area in the lung that appears hazy or cloudy on the CT scan. It can indicate various conditions, such as inflammation, infection, or early stages of lung disease.
Subpleural nodule in the right lung: This refers to a small abnormality or growth detected in the right lung, near the outer lining of the lung. The exact nature of the nodule would need further evaluation to determine if it is benign (non-cancerous) or potentially malignant (cancerous).

Male | 27
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.

I gradually noticed black mucus and blood spots while cough I had completed 6 months tb medicine
Female | 23
It's understandable to be concerned about noticing dark mucus and blood while coughing, especially after completing your tuberculosis treatment. These symptoms may occur due to irritation in the airways, residual effects of the infection, or other underlying issues. It's important to monitor your symptoms closely. I strongly encourage you to consult a pulmonologist for an evaluation. They can conduct tests to determine the cause and suggest appropriate treatment.

Had a chest xray for a cough/chest congestion that has lingered for a week. Do I have to take a zpak if no bronchitis or pneumonia was seen on xray?
Female | 47
A chest x-ray may rule out pneumonia or bronchitis but whether the prescription is appropriate remains questionable. In case you have a persistent cough and chest congestion, it is recommended that a pulmonologist should be consulted for further examination and treatment.

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.

The symptoms you are giving are very understandable. Muscle pain and weakness after fever and colds sometimes occur, but if the pain and numbness are increasing, it is a problem. It can also happen because of neurological or muscular issues. Taking a little rest, making hydration, and doing some light stretching can be helpful. But most importantly, you should consult a pulmonologist who can accurately examination of your health and provide you with proper treatment.

Feeling like you can't breathe properly is concerning. Not getting enough air could come from asthma, allergies, anxiety, or a lung infection. Symptoms include shortness of breath, chest tightness, and wheezing. It's crucial to see a pulmonologist for a diagnosis and treatment plan suited to you. For now, try deep breathing exercises and stay in a well-ventilated area. This might help temporarily.

I have lung infection which is caused by klebseilla pneumonia.. I found it a month ago! I have been taking medications my wheezing has stopped lately but i am having severe back pain and difficulty in swalloing food. Are these due to the same infection?
Female | 19
The severe hurt in your back and the trouble to swallow food may be from the infection in the lungs caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae. Sometimes, this infectious microorganism can circulate to other locations justifying the appearance of brand-new symptoms. The back pain might be a result of an inflammation, while the timing issue could be caused by throat irritation. Discussing these new symptoms with a pulmonologist is the first step to getting a suitable treatment.

Female | 65
A cough that is dry and lasts two months or more can be due to different factors. It's good that she is taking tablets and home remedies but if the cough still stays on, it would be best to consult a pulmonologist once again to have it properly diagnosed. Also, advise your grandma to drink lots of fluids, use a humidifier in the room, and if possible, turn her filled with irritants like smoke or dust.

I'm suffering with sudden breathless at night
Female | 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.

Greetings In which there is pain, cough and cold. and have fever
Female | 60
It sounds like you are experiencing discomfort, including respiratory symptoms and an increase in body temperature. These signs could indicate a viral infection like a cold or flu. Staying well-hydrated, resting, and using over-the-counter medications can help alleviate your symptoms. Warm teas and soups may provide comfort, while a humidifier can ease breathing. It’s important to monitor your temperature and symptoms closely. If your fever persists beyond a few days or worsens, I encourage you to consult a pulmonologist for a thorough evaluation and personalized guidance.
