I'm really worried about my dad. He was diagnosed with interstitial lung disease about two years ago, and now I'm concerned it might be in an advanced stage. His latest HRCT shows a superimposed infection, and I'm not sure what this means or what we should do next. Can you offer any advice or insights on this situation?

View allI'm dealing with allergic rhinitis and I've been using Foracort 200 puff for a couple of months now because of my shortness of breath. I've been doing 1 puff in the morning and another in the evening. I'm starting to feel better and don't have any breathing issues now. Can I cut back to just taking a puff in the morning? I've been checking my peak flow meter at home.
Yes,continue same treatment. As advised by the physician.

I'm a 29-year-old guy dealing with allergic rhinitis, and now it's progressed to allergic asthma. I had a chest X-ray, which was normal, but my AEC count came back high. A few days ago, I had a really severe breathing problem, and my doctor put me on Airtec SF 250, ABphylline SR 200 mg, and Montair FX. These have helped a little, but I'm still feeling some breathing issues. I'm wondering if it'll take some time for the symptoms to fully settle down, or if there's anything else I could be taking to feel better. Could you give me some advice?

I'm facing a problem with my breathing whenever I'm in cold places like my office, and it seems like that's when my cough really kicks in. I don't have the flu or anything, but I notice I'm breathing really fast. Anyone know what could be going on?
That could be due to allergy,try to identify the allergen and avoid it, visit Physician for evaluation and appropriate management
