I'm really worried about my dad. He's been dealing with asthma since 2010, and now it seems like his condition is getting worse. He's using inhalers, rotahalers, and other meds every day, but it doesn't seem to be helping much. Is there any real cure for this? Plus, he's been having skin issues that I think are from the side effects of all the meds. His overall health is not great either. What can we do to help improve his situation?

View allI'm really worried about my Bronco pneumonia. I've had it since I was a kid, and I've heard different things from different doctors. Some say it's due to allergies and might get better with time, while others feel the weather where I live isnt right for me. I even moved to see if that would help, but I'm still having asthma problems. Anytime I get a little cold, the coughing starts and my asthma flares up. I've been using Asthalin to manage it. Do I have to live with this for the rest of my life? Is there anything else I could try or look into?

I've been dealing with a cough for over two weeks, and my throat is super itchy, especially at night. It kicked off with a fever, but that's gone now. Still, my throat feels the same. Any ideas on what might be going on or what I should do next?
persistent cough and itchy throat for over two weeks, especially after a fever, may indicate an underlying condition such as a lingering respiratory infection, allergies, acid reflux, or postnasal drip; a proper evaluation and diagnostic tests (e.g., throat swab, chest X-ray) can help determine the cause and guide appropriate treatment.

I'm feeling really concerned because every night between 6 PM and 3 AM, I start getting a fever accompanied by chills and sweating. After the fever, I find it hard to take deep breaths, only managing about 8 seconds sometimes. Sometimes, the fever even hits in the evening and morning. I'm also experiencing pain on the right side of my chest, especially when I cough or try to take a long breath. I recently got an X-ray, and it mentioned something about a thick-walled cavitory lesion in the right mid-zone with some surrounding consolidation. Does this sound serious? What could it possibly mean for my health?
