I'm a 20-year-old student and I've been dealing with bronchitis for the past 10 years. Every April, I struggle with breathlessness and a lot of mucus in my chest, it gets pretty congested. I don't eat anything that would increase mucus, just stick to simple homemade foods, but it keeps happening. I use a nebulizer to help out, but I'm worried if this is something I'm going to have to deal with for life. Do you know if there's any way to cure this or make it better?

View allI'm worried because my mom's oxygen levels drop when she sleeps. The doctors mentioned that her lungs aren't expelling enough oxygen when she breathes out. She's 67 years old, weighs 95 kg, and is about 5 feet tall. Do you have any advice on what we can do to help her?
Your mother's condition, known as sleep-related hypoxemia, may be related to obesity-hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) or sleep apnea, given her weight and age; consider consulting a pulmonologist or sleep specialist for a thorough evaluation, including a sleep study, and potential treatments like continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy, oxygen supplementation, or weight loss strategies to improve her oxygen levels and overall health.

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with TB for about a year now and I've been on the medications Rcinex 750mg and Combutal 800mg the whole time. The doctor advised me to stop after 9 months, which I did, but now I'm experiencing a fever and a slow cough again. I had to restart the meds and I'm not seeing any weight gain either, which is concerning. Also, whenever I drink something like Thums Up, my tongue feels really strange and kind of tingly. What should I do about all this? I'm a bit confused and would like some guidance.

My aunt was diagnosed with holes in her lung through a CT scan at SVIMS Tirupati. The doctors said medicines won't fully cure it and surgery could have complications. Is there any other treatment option for this condition? We're really worried and would like to know if consulting you could help.
