Question 2

Hi doctor, Ive been having heavy breathing at night, so I use Salbair inhaler, and it helps clear out some mucus, which comes out in thread-like strands. Is it okay to keep using Salbair as an inhaler, or should I be worried about relying on it?

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you're experiencing breathing difficulties at night, and using Salbair (a salbutamol inhaler) can help relieve symptoms of wheezing or shortness of breath. However, if youre noticing persistent symptoms or coughing, its important to consult with a healthcare provider to evaluate your condition, as this could be related to asthma, allergies, or another respiratory issue.

Hi doctor, Ive been told theres an issue with my left lung. I got an X-ray done, and it shows some blunting at the bottom of the left lung. What could this mean?

Accepted Answer

Blunting at the bottom of the left lung on your X-ray could indicate fluid accumulation or scarring, which may result from infections, pleurisy, or other conditions. Its important to follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and possible tests to determine the cause and appropriate treatment.
