Question 1

I'm a bit concerned about my 58-year-old patient. We recently did a chest X-ray and the film was reviewed, but even though the Covid RTPCR test came back negative, I'm wondering what else might be causing the symptoms. Could there be something specific we should be looking for or considering?

Question 2

I've had a persistent cough for the past three years along with frequent throat infections and mouth ulcers. I recently had sinus surgery, but the cough hasn't gone away. What could be causing this, and is there anything else I should look into?

Accepted Answer

Also called upper airway cough syndrome, postnasal drip is a common cause of a long-lasting cough. Allergies, viruses, dust, chemicals, or inflammation can irritate your nasal membranes and trigger runny mucus that drips out of your nose and down your throat. This makes you cough, especially at night when you lie down

Question 3

I'm working a night shift from 3:00 PM to 12:00 AM, and I've been having this issue where my breathing stops while I'm asleep. When I wake up in the morning, I end up vomiting, and there's also this white spit. It's honestly quite worrying, and I could really use some advice on what's going on here. Any insights would be appreciated.

I'm really curious about the results of my chest X-ray. The doctor mentioned something about increased bronchovascular markings. Can you tell me what that actually means? Is it something I should be worried about, or is it pretty normal?

Prominent bronchovascular markings is suggestive of asthma,pneumonia,heart failure or pleural effusion etc.
