I'm really worried about Manoj Asthana. He's dealing with a serious lung issue and was COVID-positive about ten days ago, but thankfully, his test is negative now. However, he's still needing oxygen support, and his HRCT score is alarmingly high at 24 out of 25. I've attached his chest X-ray and HRCT report. Could you let us know what steps we should take next? We're really anxious about his condition.

I'm dealing with a persistent cough and dust allergy, and with the lockdown, it's hard to see a doctor right now. I'm thinking about taking Montek LC tablets until April 14th. Is that safe? Could there be any side effects I should be aware of? Would really appreciate your advice on this!

Montek LC is an antihistamine and leukotriene receptor antagonist, often used to treat allergies and asthma. While generally considered safe, taking Montek LC without consulting a doctor may not be advisable. If you have a pre-existing prescription for Montek LC, you can continue taking it as directed. However, if you're taking it without a prescription or for an extended period, you should be aware of potential side effects, such as: - Headache - Dizziness - Nausea - Diarrhea - Stomach pain

I've had this issue with breathing for the past 15 to 20 years, and it's really been bothering me. Sometimes I can take a deep breath through my nose and mouth, but other times it feels like I just can't breathe deeply at all. My nose gets blocked frequently, and even after using Vicks, it opens up but doesn't quite give me that 'free' feeling of breathing. Also, when I sleep on my stomach, food often comes up to my throat, causing me to choke and wake up. My stomach feels bloated for hours as well. I've been told it might be anxiety, but I'm not sure. I can comfortably climb up to three floors, but anything more leaves me breathless. I've done an ECG, ABH test, BP check, and even a chest x-ray which showed some congestion but everything else was normal. Stress tests from six years ago were normal too, and I still struggle to understand what's going on. Could this really be anxiety, or could there be something else affecting my breathing?

Azeflo nasal spray is advised to the patient.
