  5. I'm curious about the benefits of taking turmeric steam for shortness of breath. I've been doing it for over a month now. I've also had a chest x-ray that showed no issues, and I'm on medication suggested by a pulmonologist from this app. I don't have any cold, fever, or cough. The doctor mentioned it might be due to acidity and anxiety, but I find myself needing to take deep breaths every 34 minutes or so. I don't eat much and just do some light walking in my parking lot because of the lockdown. I had been using duolin and easebreath nebulization but decided to stop and stick with turmeric steam instead. I'm also taking RabletD and Abflo, with just two doses left. What do you think about this approach?

Turmeric steam may provide some comfort but doesnt directly address shortness of breath caused by acidity or anxiety. Its good that your chest X-ray is normal and you're following your pulmonologists advice. Continue your prescribed medications (Rablet-D and AB-Flo), stay hydrated, and practice relaxation techniques to manage anxiety. If symptoms persist, follow up with your doctor.
