Accepted Answer

It sounds like you may have asthma or an allergic airway condition triggered by cold or night-time air. I recommend consulting a pulmonologist for a proper evaluation, including spirometry. Continuing appropriate long-term treatment, like inhalers, may help prevent recurrence.

Accepted Answer

It means that while the chest X-ray initially showed some suspicious signs in the upper lung lobe, the follow-up apicolordotic X-ray did not reveal any abnormalities. This suggests that there are no significant issues in that area, which is reassuring. However, it's important to follow up with your doctor for further assessment if needed.

Accepted Answer

Azee 500 (Azithromycin) is an antibiotic, and while it's typically used for short-term treatment, long-term use can sometimes be necessary for chronic conditions like COPD to prevent bacterial infections. However, extended use should be monitored closely by a doctor to avoid side effects like resistance or disruption of gut bacteria. Its essential to follow the prescribed regimen and attend regular check-ups.
