I've been experiencing some light crackling sounds in my right lung base, but only when I lie down stretched out. Even when I hold my breath and push in the central lung area, the crackles tend to come and go. If I shift my position even slightly, they disappear. There's no chest pain, and these crackles are just occasional. Should I be worried about this, or could it be something serious?

The light crackles youre experiencing may be related to mild lung congestion or postural changes affecting air flow, which can be common and not usually serious, especially if theres no chest pain or difficulty breathing. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, it's a good idea to consult a doctor for further evaluation.

View allI'm really worried about my dad. He's been dealing with Asthma for a long time, and on top of that, now he's got this Marbu Sali thing going on for the last three days. He's been using Asthalin rotocaps a lot, like 78 times a day, which sounds like way too much, right? And now he's got a headache too. He doesn't have any bad habits but he just won't go see a doctor. I'm not sure what to do, can you suggest any other options or treatments that might help him?

I've been diagnosed with TB, but my report said something about pulmonary kost. They found pleural fluid in my lungs and did tapping to drain it. Now, I'm experiencing some aches from the scarring. I'm trying to understand what the exact name of my disease is. Is it tuberculosis? What type is it? Or is it something completely different like pneumonia? How are these terms connected? Also, what's the root cause of this issue Im having? Can I have cold food now or after I finish my medication? I'm curious about ways to prevent this from happening again in the future. I had this disease over a year ago and was on medication for about six months. After that, I was mostly okay, just some aches here and there, which the doctor said is normal. Then, a month later, I got diagnosed again with the fluid in my lungs. Why did it come back? Is it dangerous?

I'm really concerned because I've had this persistent cough for 25 days now, and it's accompanied by pain on the left side of my chest and a lot of fatigue, but I don't have any fever. I went to a doctor who recommended some tests and here are the results: my ESR is at 48 mm1hr, TEC is 4.17 Cumm, and while my CBC came back normal, my white blood cell count is at 13.9 Thmm3. My Serum Vitamin D3 is pretty low at 20.5 ngml, and I tested negative for Sputum for AFB. I'm not sure what all this means and should I be worried about these results?
