I'm dealing with acute bronchitis pretty often. It usually kicks off with a sore throat and then escalates to bronchitis, complete with mucus buildup in my chest and all that. I typically skip medication and just let it run its course, which takes about a week or two. I'm really wondering if this could be harming my lungs, though. Should I be considering medication instead?

View allI've just had a chest X-ray, and while most of it looks good, there's this one finding that says "tenting of the left diaphragm grade 1.1." What exactly does that mean? Is it something I should be worried about health-wise? Could there be a link to my heart or any other reasons for this? What kind of symptoms should I keep an eye out for?

I've been diagnosed with TB, but my report said something about pulmonary kost. They found pleural fluid in my lungs and did tapping to drain it. Now, I'm experiencing some aches from the scarring. I'm trying to understand what the exact name of my disease is. Is it tuberculosis? What type is it? Or is it something completely different like pneumonia? How are these terms connected? Also, what's the root cause of this issue Im having? Can I have cold food now or after I finish my medication? I'm curious about ways to prevent this from happening again in the future. I had this disease over a year ago and was on medication for about six months. After that, I was mostly okay, just some aches here and there, which the doctor said is normal. Then, a month later, I got diagnosed again with the fluid in my lungs. Why did it come back? Is it dangerous?
