I've been feeling really out of breath at night and I'm dealing with a chest infection and a constant cough. I'm wondering if taking the tablet Theoasthalin would help with my symptoms. Can you give me some advice on whether it's a good idea to try it?

View allWhat can I drink to cleanse my lungs?
There is no scientific proof to methods available online to detox your lungs. Fortunately, Lungs are good at cleaning and repairing themselves unless there was any chronic damage done. You may follow some steps to keep the lungs healthy such as Quit smoking, avoid second-hand smoke, steer clear of pollution indoors & outside (Wear mask, use air purifiers), prevent lung infections (Hand washing, maintain distance from sick people, get flu/pneumonia vaccines), include anti oxidants in diet and do breathing exercises or any physical activity on regular basis.

I'm a bit worried about the X-ray results that mention "haziness" in the left mid and lower zones of my chest. What could this mean? Should I be concerned about it, and what kind of follow-up do you recommend?
The X-ray report indicates haziness in the left mid and lower lung zones, which could suggest inflammation, infection, or a possible buildup of fluid. It's important to correlate this finding with your symptoms and clinical history for a more accurate diagnosis. I recommend discussing the results with your doctor for further evaluation and appropriate management.

I'm really confused about something and could really use some clarity. Is pulmonary Koch's the same as tuberculosis in the lungs? And if they're different, do they require the same kind of treatment as tuberculosis? Also, is this pulmonary Koch's thing contagious?
Yes, pulmonary Koch's is another term for tuberculosis (TB) in the lungs. It requires similar treatment, usually involving a combination of antibiotics over several months. TB is contagious, so it's important to follow precautions to prevent spreading it to others.
