Question 1

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with a dry cough for over two months now, and I've had breathing problems too. My head hurts a lot, and I've been vomiting. I got an x-ray, and it looks like the infection in my chest is getting worse. What could be causing all this, and what should I do next?

Accepted Answer

Tab augmentin 625mg orally thrice daily,tab levocetizine 10mg bed time for 5 days and syrup sucralfate 10ml thrice daily is advised to the patient.

Question 2

I'm really worried because I've had a severe cough for the last five days. I'm taking Micef 200, Dolo 650, Dexona, Monticope, and MagnatussA syrup for it. In the mornings, I really have to cough hard to get any phlegm out, and it comes out red at first, then turns light green. Is that normal or something I should be more concerned about? Also, I'm experiencing a lot of headaches and body pain because of the coughing. What should I do?

Accepted Answer

as there is no relief get a throat swab done and visit Physician for appropriate management

Question 3

I'm a bit confused about the steam from nebulizers. I recently got the Dr. Trust nebulizer, and it gives off cold steam. Isn't the steam supposed to be hot? The evaporation of the medicine seems to work fine according to the manual, but I'm still concerned if this is normal. Could you help clarify this for me?

Accepted Answer

For a nebulizer like Dr. Trust, the steam provided should be a fine, cool mist, not hot steam, as cool mist is more comfortable to inhale and helps prevent irritation to the airways, so the cold steam produced by your nebulizer is appropriate and effective for delivering medication.

I'm really stressed about this old tuberculosis scar I have. It's seriously causing issues with visa applications, especially in the UAE. Are there any medications or antibiotics that can actually get rid of it? If not, what other options do I have to bypass this hurdle and still secure the visa?

Removing old TB scars isn't possible with medication or antibiotics alone
