I've been dealing with some allergy problems lately, and when I saw a doctor, they had me do an allergy test and a chest X-ray. They mentioned there might be an infection in my chest. I decided to consult another doctor who requested a Montoux (Mantoux) test, and it came back with a 14mm result. I'm a bit worried about what all this could mean. Could you help me understand these results and the possible implications?

I'm having a bit of trouble with my breathing, especially when I'm climbing stairs. I've been using my inhaler, and I've also had the Prevenar 13 vaccination back in 2018 and the FLUQUADRI 0.5ml booster in July 2019. My doctor has mentioned I need another vaccination for this season, especially with the monsoon coming. Could you let me know if the FLUQUADRI 2020-21 vaccine is available in Electronic City, Bangalore? Any insights would be really helpful.

I've had a dry cough for the last three months, and while I'm generally feeling fine with no fever or anything like that, the cough just won't completely go away. I tried taking Zed S syrup, Corex T syrup, and Bro Clear for three days, but it doesn't seem to clear up entirely. I still get a bit of a cough when I gargle. Could you recommend a medicine that might really help clear it up?

I recently got a chest X-ray as part of a visa medical exam, and the report said both my hila are prominent. I'm really concerned about what this means. Can you explain the possible causes and what I might be able to do to address this before my retest?

Prominent hila on a chest X-ray can be caused by various conditions such as infections, inflammation, or even tumors. To determine the exact cause, further evaluation may be needed. In the meantime, to reduce inflammation and promote healing, you can take over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medications like ibuprofen. I recommend taking Ibuprofen 400mg every 6 hours as needed for pain and inflammation. However, it is important to follow up with a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
