Question 1

My dad just got out of the hospital after dealing with Post Covid Pneumonia, but he's still really weak and has a bit of a cough. I'm worried about his energy levels and overall recovery.

Question 2

My mom's been dealing with some worrisome health issues lately. She has this cold cough and experiences shortness of breath, especially at night. We found out about some lower fibrotic changes in her left lung, but the HRCT and chest X-ray both came out normal. She's already been given some strong antibiotics, but there hasn't been any noticeable improvement. We're located in Ahmedabad and I'm really unsure about what to do next. Can you provide some guidance or suggestions on how to proceed?

Accepted Answer

I'm sorry to hear about your mom's struggles. Fibrotic changes can sometimes cause chronic symptoms despite normal imaging. Consider consulting a pulmonologist for further evaluation, possibly for inhalers or anti-inflammatory treatments, and to rule out other causes like asthma or GERD. Stay strongshe's lucky to have your care.

Question 3

I don't have a cough at all, but I've been putting a lot of effort into trying to bring up sputum, and thankfully, I've never seen blood in it. I'm not a smoker, but I do experience acidity problems. After taking Theo-Asthalin tablets for the past three days, I'm now feeling a heaviness in my chest. Could you help me understand what's going on and suggest what might be helpful for me?

Accepted Answer

take tablet mucinac twice a day for 5 days
