I'm dealing with latent TB and it's been a month since I stopped smoking. I'm wondering if it's okay to smoke weed occasionally in this situation. What are your thoughts?

I'm really worried about my bronchitis and wondering if I should be thinking about going to the hospital for treatment. Do you think it's necessary to get admitted, or is it something that can be managed at home? It would be great to get some advice. Thank you.

I'm feeling really unwell with a cold, cough, and throat issues, and I'm worried about it. I already paid for the consultation, but I'm getting calls from a physician instead. Could you please connect me with a pulmonology specialist for a video consultation? I think that's what I really need right now.

I've been dealing with a really bad cold and cough for a week now, and my nose is constantly running. It's making it hard to breathe, and the chest pain is pretty severe. I saw a general physician, but there's been no relief. The coughing and cold are making so much mucus build up, and the pain in my chest is unbearable. I'm feeling really weak and just can't shake this cold. What should I do?
