Question 4

I'm really worried about my dad - he's in the early stages of lung fibrosis after having COVID. Is there any treatment or way to cure lung fibrosis? I've heard of it being difficult to handle, so any help or suggestions are appreciated.

Accepted Answer

Lung fibrosis, especially in the early stages, can sometimes be managed with medications like antifibrotics (e.g., pirfenidone or nintedanib) to slow progression. It's crucial to follow your doctor's advice, manage any underlying conditions, and focus on pulmonary rehabilitation to improve lung function and quality of life. Regular check-ups are essential.

I'm dealing with gynecomastia and just got back from the doctor. The tests say I have mild bilateral gynecomastia. I'm curious if there's a natural way to treat this. If surgery is the only option, how much would that cost? Would love some guidance here.

Accepted Answer

Mild bilateral gynecomastia can be addressed through natural methods, such as weight loss, exercise, and hormonal balance, but results may vary; surgical options, like male breast reduction surgery, can be more effective, with costs ranging from 50,000 to 2 lakhs (approximately $650-$2,600 USD) per breast, depending on factors like location, surgeon's expertise, and hospital fees.
