Question 1

I've been experiencing this weird chest congestion and discomfort for about six months now. I went to see a cardiologist and got an echo test done, and they said my heart is fine. There's no pain coming from the heart area either. But this annoying chest pressure just keeps coming and going. It's not interfering with my daily activities, but I have been feeling more tired than usual. Breathing isn't an issue, thankfully. However, today I noticed a sore throat along with the chest congestion. There's no mucus with blood or anything alarming like that, but the discomfort is still there from my throat to my chest. Could you offer some advice on this?

Accepted Answer

take tablet amoxyclav for 5 days

Question 2

I've been dealing with a fever for about six weeks now. My doctor did a Mantoux test, which came back positive, and I started treatment for TB. The fever went away after four days, but now it's back. It spikes to 102 degrees around 3 PM and again after midnight. Is this something normal during TB treatment, or should I be concerned about it?

Accepted Answer

Stick to your treatment! Complete the full course! And just to be sure get an sputum AFB done if not done already!

Question 3

I'm really worried about my husband's chest pain. The doctor said it's a lung allergy and put him on a one-month course. But he still feels a tightness in his chest every day, and he's really weak. He's had heart checkups like ECG and BP, and everything seems fine. I'm sharing his reports. Could you help me understand what's going on with him?

Accepted Answer

continue the same allergic medicines and then practice some yoga exercises
