I'm a bit worried because my x-ray results show I have a lung nodule. I'm applying to be a public teacher, and I don't have any pain or issues in my lung area, and I rarely cough. From what I know, a nodule isn't a communicable disease, so do you think I can still get a fit-to-work clearance?

I'm feeling really breathless for the past 5 days, but I don't have any cough or flu symptoms. I've tried taking anti-allergic and anti-acidic nasal sprays, and Ive been using steam. I've also taken Novacef 500, Xyxal M, and Sompraz 40. I've got some relief, but it's not completely better. Could you give me some advice on what else I might try?

I'm a 50-year-old mom of two and I've been struggling with this unbearable coughing. It's like I can't stop until I cough up the phlegm, which is really painful. My doctor gave me some medicine and suggested using a nebulizer, but honestly, I'm not satisfied and just want to understand what's really wrong. Can you help me figure out what might be causing this?

I'm really worried about my brother. We're from Pakistan and he's been diagnosed with acute lung fibrosis. Even the doctors at Sheikh Zayed Hospital can't figure out the cause. We've done all kinds of tests at the top hospitals here, but we're still in the dark. I'm wondering if there's any way to send his samples to one of the best lung and pulmonary hospitals in India for further testing? What do you think would be the best course of action?
