Question 1

I'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?

Accepted Answer

asthalin inhaler

Question 2

I'm looking for some advice from a pulmonologist. Lately, I've been feeling dizzy in the evenings and experiencing a bit of shortness of breath, even though all my blood reports are normal. I heard that Practo might have free doctors available online. Could someone take a look at my reports and help me figure out what's going on?

Accepted Answer

i cannot see your reports

Question 3

I've been dealing with this persistent cough and phlegm situation for about 8 days now. I went to see a doctor, and they prescribed me Brozedex syrup, Cefolac AZ tablets, Crocin for pain relief, and Budusal nebulizer at .10mg, but I'm still not feeling any improvement with the phlegm. Should I be worried, or is there something else I could try?

Accepted Answer

To address your concerns:

*Vaginal Discharge and Abdominal Hair*

- Vaginal discharge can be normal, but if accompanied by itching, burning, or a strong odor, it may indicate a yeast infection or bacterial vaginosis.
- The black line of hair on your abdomen (linea nigra) can be caused by hormonal fluctuations, which may be related to pregnancy, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), or other hormonal imbalances.

*Lip Kissing and Pregnancy*

- Lip kissing does not cause pregnancy. Pregnancy occurs when a sperm fertilizes an egg, typically through vaginal intercourse.

*Recommended Actions*

1. Schedule a gynecological exam to assess the vaginal discharge and abdominal hair growth.
2. Practice safe sex to prevent unintended pregnancy and STIs.
3. Consider taking a pregnancy test if you suspect you might be pregnant.

I'm kind of worried because I finished my TB treatment a year ago, but now I'm experiencing chest pain, although I don't have a cough or anything like that. I'm just wondering, is it possible that the TB could be back even though my reports aren't showing any signs of it?

Patient is advised ecg,chest xray pa view and also sputum for AFB and microscopy.
