I understand your concern for your child, Muhammad Arham. It sounds like he experiences periods of breath-holding when upset, which can be alarming. This may happen due to a response to strong emotions like fear or frustration. Although these episodes can be distressing, they are often not serious. Continue to gently support him when he is upset, and encourage calm breathing. However, it is important to have a pediatrician evaluate these episodes, especially since they have occurred multiple times.

Your case might be pneumonia. It can make you cough up thick, pinkish mucus and can also cause pain in the left part of the chest when you lie down. You might also have trouble breathing while sleeping. Pneumonia is an infection that triggers inflammation in the air sacs in your lungs. You have to refer a pulmonologist for the best diagnosis and treatment.

Male | 25
You are already in a group with a cough for quite a long time, and you just began to observe blood in your mucus. When there is blood mixed with mucus, it could be due to different reasons such as a severe cough, bronchitis, or even a lung infection. Visit a pulmonologist to know the real reason and the proper treatment.

Consult a pulmonologist to check your symptoms, or a gastroenterologist since you were facing antral gastritis. Your chest pain could be something related to antral gastritis.

I’ve been having a issue since morning tho I’m asthmatic when I feel the pain I use inhaler it stops and later I feel it again
Male | 22
Asthma causes breathing difficulties like chest pain and shortness of breath. If you use your inhaler and feel better, that medicine is opening your airways. However, when symptoms return, it may mean asthma isn't fully controlled. You likely need to see a pulmonologist who can adjust your treatment plan. The right treatment helps manage asthma symptoms properly.

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.

A Patient 73 year old male has metastatic lung cancer went through radiation it's been 2-3 months since radiation ...used to eat a little but over the time his desire to eat has disappeared [has just a cup of juice but not frequently and gets wheezing cough whenever he does ] has lost so much weight [went from 70 kg to 45-50 ish] unable to walk by himself and recently fractured his femur [hence bedridden ] ..is now admitted thinking of going through surgery for the same [doctor says no guarantee ]...can I give them shilajit or I shouldn't because their lungs are too weak for that ?
Male | 73
The weight loss and decreased appetite can stem from both cancer and treatment effects. A weak lung condition can make adding supplements like shilajit risky, as it may not be advisable for those with respiratory issues. Focus on ensuring hydration and small, gentle meals, if tolerated. It’s vital to have an ongoing conversation with the pulmonologist about pain management and nutrition strategies. Always consult with his doctor before introducing any new remedies to ensure his safety and appropriate care.

I AM 19 YEARS OLD & I'M PATIENT OF TB THE MONTH OF 40 DAYS SO HOW CAN RECOVER MY CHEST TB WHEN MY COUGH IS TOO HIGH SO GOING PAIN IS MY FULL BODY
Female | 19
Chest TB is caused by bacteria that infect the lungs, leading to severe coughing and body pain. Recovery usually takes a few months with proper medication. It's crucial to take the medicines prescribed by your doctor every day for at least 6 months. Ensure you rest, eat well, and avoid close contact with others as TB is contagious. For the best care, please visit a pulmonologist.

I have asthma but no inhaler and I want to start track and field in my school. What should I do?
Female | 14
Sports if you are asthmatic and lack of inhaler can turn out to be a dangerous affair. Asthma is a disease that can cause breathing difficulties, coughing, and compactness of the chest among other things. Physical activities can provoke an asthma attack. In your situation, it would be dangerous to do track and field without an inhaler. Warn your parents or school nurse about your asthma and request them to help you get an inhaler before beginning track and field.

I wanna talk about chest infection
Male | 55
A chest infection happens when germs enter the lungs. Breathing becomes difficult. You might cough constantly, feel short of breath, and experience chest discomfort. Viruses or bacteria frequently cause this condition. To alleviate symptoms, get plenty of rest, drink water regularly, and use a humidifier. Additionally, inhaling steam or taking warm showers can provide relief. However, if symptoms worsen, it's crucial to seek medical attention from a pulmonologist.

Mujhe lungs me hydatid cyst and bronchitis hua tha uska surgery huye 90 day hua sahi tha sab pta nhi kyu khasi aur thoda pain ho rha starch ke side me
Male | 23
You had surgery in your lungs and bronchitis 90 days ago to get rid of a hydatid cyst. It's normal to have a cough and some pain even after surgery. Coughing could be leftover irritation in your lungs that causes the problem. The pain could be your body still healing. Rest, drink plenty of fluids, and follow up with your pulmonologist to ensure everything is okay.

I’ve been vaping for a while and I decided to quit bwcause I started feeling like I didn’t have very good stamina and I decided to quit and 3 days before I quit I started feeling small sharp pains in my left side of my body and I’m pretty sure it’s my lung but I don’t know if it’s just my anxiety and I don’t know if it’s just heart burn because I haven’t eaten much which could be the case but I don’t know
Male | 14
Several factors can cause sharp irritations on the left side of your body, including issues with the respiratory system, anxiety, or heart problems due to inadequate food intake. Eating healthily, staying hydrated, and resting may help improve these symptoms. However, consult a pulmonologist if the irritation persists or worsens.

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
Male | 20
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.
