I'm really worried because my recent CT scan and X-ray showed I have bronchiectasis in my right upper lung. There's also something about my lower bowel that's concerning. Could this be why I've been having breathing issues or stomach discomfort? What could these findings mean for my health and are there any specific treatments you would recommend?

View allSometimes in the last two days, I've been experiencing shortness of breath and a tight feeling in my chest. I dont have any other symptoms. I was diagnosed with a bronchitis tendency a few years ago. After having COVID back in April 2021, I got a pulmonary analysis, and that was normal. With COVID still a concern, it's tough to meet a doctor face-to-face. Do you think it's safe for me to take Aerocort and Asthaline 4mg twice a day for 5 days? Any other advice you can share?
Yes,continue asthaline and aerocort 4 mg for 5 days,twice daily .Also salbutamol inhaler sos is advised for breathing difficulty.

I'm curious about the benefits of taking turmeric steam for shortness of breath. I've been doing it for over a month now. I've also had a chest x-ray that showed no issues, and I'm on medication suggested by a pulmonologist from this app. I don't have any cold, fever, or cough. The doctor mentioned it might be due to acidity and anxiety, but I find myself needing to take deep breaths every 34 minutes or so. I don't eat much and just do some light walking in my parking lot because of the lockdown. I had been using duolin and easebreath nebulization but decided to stop and stick with turmeric steam instead. I'm also taking RabletD and Abflo, with just two doses left. What do you think about this approach?
Turmeric steam may provide some comfort but doesnt directly address shortness of breath caused by acidity or anxiety. Its good that your chest X-ray is normal and you're following your pulmonologists advice. Continue your prescribed medications (Rablet-D and AB-Flo), stay hydrated, and practice relaxation techniques to manage anxiety. If symptoms persist, follow up with your doctor.
