I'm having some trouble with my breathing and I already tried the pantosec d gas tablet that my doctor recommended. I also saw a pulmonologist, had a chest X-ray and an ECG, and both came out normal. There didn't seem to be any problems, so no meds were given. Do you think I might still need any medication or other tests?

View allI've been dealing with wheezing for a few years now, and recently, my cough has gotten a lot worse. There are times when I really struggle to catch my breath. I've been using Levolin as prescribed, and my doctor told me to continue with it. But I'm just wondering if that's really enough? Should I be considering any additional treatments or precautions?

I'm struggling with some chest congestion. It gets worse whenever I'm in an air-conditioned room or after having cold drinks. It's really hard to breathe sometimes, and I can feel the congestion in my lungs and chest. Could you recommend some medicine or advice on what to do?

I'm a bit worried. I recently had a plain CT scan of my chest at Apollo Hospital in Chennai and it came back with some concerns. When I went for a medical check-up for Kuwait, the doctor said I was unfit because of something they found on my chest X-ray. They mentioned something about an abnormal chest and blunting in the right chest CP angle, and there's this white scar on the downside of my chest. I was told there's no medicine for it. What should I do to resolve this issue?
The discrepancy between the Apollo Hospital CT scan and the Kuwait medical checkup chest X-ray results suggests a possible error or misinterpretation; the "blunting of right costophrenic angle" and "white scar" may indicate a benign, old, healed lesion or scarring, and since the doctor said no medicine is required, you may want to consider a second opinion or a repeat CT scan to confirm the findings and clarify your fitness for work in Kuwait.
