Question 1

I'm really worried about my dad who's 71. He's been in the hospital for 8 days due to some respiratory problems and was found to have a lower respiratory tract infection. He's conscious but has needed ventilator support for the past 4 days. Could you please let me know if the treatment he's receiving sounds right? And how long do you think it might take for him to recover?

Accepted Answer

Yes you are recieving right treatment,trust your doctor and follow their advice

Question 2

I've been having this coughing issue for a few months now, and I noticed that whenever I take Montair LC, the cough stops but only for two days. Then it comes back, and I find myself needing to take the medicine again for some temporary relief. I'm getting a bit concerned and wondering why this is happening. Is it normal for the relief to be so short-lived, or should I be thinking about seeing a doctor for a more permanent solution?

Accepted Answer

That could be due to allergy consume warm foods and identify the triggering factor and avoid it

Question 3

I've been dealing with some health issues lately and I'm getting pretty concerned. I'm 28 and moved to Bangalore about a year ago. I was diagnosed with Acute Urticaria back in July 2017, and it was manageable with medicine. But then, around May or June this year, I started noticing asthma-like symptoms creeping in, and now theyre happening all the time. The smallest amount of dust sets it off, or if the AC is turned off at work or home. Even laughing, which I used to do a lot, or sneezing, or talking fast triggers an episode. I've had heartburn a lot too and it seems to be linked to the asthma. I use Asthalin to help with the severe episodes. For the last couple of weeks, I've been waking up after only about 3 hours of sleep because I can't breathe well. I'm really worried about my health getting worse, so I'm wondering if there's any way to cure this. Any advice would be really appreciated.
