Accepted Answer

It sounds like you have a case of pneumonitis, which is causing inflammation in the lung tissue, and the blood in your sputum could be due to irritation or mild bleeding from the airways. The yellow sputum suggests an ongoing infection. It's important to follow up with your doctor for appropriate treatment, such as antibiotics or other therapies, to help with healing.

Question 3

I got an X-ray report that says my trachea is in the midline. Is that normal or should I be concerned about it?

Accepted Answer

A midline trachea, as indicated by your X-ray report, is generally considered normal, as the trachea typically runs vertically through the thorax, slightly to the right of the midline, but a perfectly midline trachea can also be a normal anatomical variation.

Accepted Answer

Consult a pulmonologist in your home country for a thorough evaluation, and obtain a medical certificate, including a chest CT scan, sputum tests, and blood tests, confirming the TB is inactive, then, with this documentation, apply for a fitness certificate from the UAE embassy or consulate, which may require additional testing or documentation, to facilitate your return to Dubai
