I've been dealing with asthma for the past 10 years and started using a medicine called Salbair I about a year ago. I've been taking it regularly and I'm worried if that's harmful. Should I stop using it, or what should I do instead? How risky is this medicine for me?

I'm a 24-year-old male and a few months ago I had some serious chest pain. I got an X-ray done back then and it showed something like blunting of the anterior CP angle on the lateral view. The pain went away after taking antibiotics. Fast forward to now, Ive been dealing with diarrhea for about a month and when I visited the doctor, he suggested a range of tests something like re blood, RBS, LFT, Montoux test, colonoscopy, and a chest X-ray. Turns out, the chest X-ray looks the same as it did five months ago. Could you help me understand what's going on? Should I be worried that the X-ray hasnt changed?

I'm having this annoying chest congestion that only seems to hit me at night. It's been a week now and it's making it really hard for me to sleep well. Could this be allergy, flu, or something more serious?

It sounds like you might be dealing with nighttime chest congestion, which could be triggered by allergies, post-nasal drip, or a mild respiratory infection like the flu. However, if it's persistent and affecting your sleep, it's best to get it checked by a doctor to rule out any underlying conditions.
