I've been feeling this pain on the right side of my chest whenever I take a deep breath or sneeze. It's been going on for about two months, and sometimes it feels mild, but other times it's sharp. Plus, it hurts more when I do anything physical. The pain even goes up to my right shoulder and back. I don't have a cough or sore throat or anything like that, just this weird pain. What do you think it could be?

View allI've been noticing blood when I sneeze for a while now, and it's showing up in my sputum too. It started back in March 2016, and although I tested negative for TB, a doctor recommended a budamate inhaler and TelecastL, which helped stop the bleeding. I stopped the medication after a couple of months without consulting the doctor, and now the bleeding is back. The doctor suggested a bronchoscopy, but there aren't any available beds at the hospital, and now the doctor is on leave. I already had a CT scan done on my chest, but I'm really concerned about what might be causing this hemoptysis and what steps I should take next. Could you give me some guidance?

I'm having trouble with my asthma lately. I've been on Seroflo 250 for about 5 years, but it doesn't seem to be helping much anymore. I'm wondering if Foracort 200 might be a better option. What do you think? Is it more effective?
Foracort 200 (Formoterol + Budesonide) and Seroflo 250 (Salmeterol + Fluticasone) are both combination inhalers for asthma, and while Foracort 200 may have a faster onset of action, Seroflo 250 has a longer duration of action; switching to Foracort 200 may help, but consult your doctor, as they can assess your asthma severity, adjust your treatment plan, and determine the best medication for you.

I'm dealing with tuberculosis and I'm a bit confused. My PCR test came back positive but the culture report was negative. Also, after one month of treatment, my sputum test is negative too. I've already completed two months of treatment. What does this all mean? Should I be worried about the differing test results?
continue the treatment till your doctor has adviced
