I've been dealing with a chronic belching problem ever since my first chest tube 3 years ago. This week, I was back in the hospital with another chest tube, and interestingly enough, I barely burped at all while I was there. Now that I'm back home, the burping has started up again, and it's painful to take a deep breath. I'm really worried my lung might have collapsed again. Could these issues be connected? Should I go back to the hospital?

View allI've been noticing a hissing sound when I inhale, and honestly, it's been happening on and off for about 15 years now. Lately though, like for the last 6 months, it's been popping up way more, like every few days. It's especially noticeable in cooler weather or if I'm around dust, sneezing, laughing really hard, or even when I'm climbing up hills or stairs like to the third floor. It's starting to worry me, and I'm not sure what's going on. Could you give me some guidance on what might be causing this?

Is there anything critical in my report? I'm worried because it mentions both hila are congested, but everything else seems normal like the cardiac shadow and costophrenic angles. Should I be concerned about the hila congestion? What does this mean for my overall lung health?
BOTH HILA ARE CONGESTED.THIS IS A POSITIVE FINDING. THIS MUST BE TAKEN CARE. DO YOU HAVE CONSENT COUGH? ARE YOU A SMOKER OR OCCASIONAL ALCOHOLIC? NEED PROPER EXAMINATION BY PULMONOLOGIST

I've just started taking Fixcom 4 for my PTB, and I'm really confused about how to take it. Am I supposed to take all 3 tablets in the morning, or should it be 3 times a day? Right now, I've just been taking one tablet because I'm not sure about the dosage. Could you help me understand how I should be taking this medication?
For the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) with Fixcom 4, the usual recommended dosage is 3 tablets to be taken once daily. It is important to take all 3 tablets at the same time, rather than spreading them out throughout the day. Therefore, you should consume all 3 tablets of Fixcom 4 together in the morning. It is essential to follow the prescribed dosage and regimen for the effective treatment of PTB.
