Question 1

Ive been having breathing problems for the last 5 years and have been using an inhaler along with Montair LC tablets. Is this something Ill need to manage long-term, or should I be looking into other treatments?

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you've been managing a chronic respiratory issue for the past five years, using an inhaler and Montair LC tablets to help with symptoms. It's important to continue following your prescribed treatment plan, but if you're noticing any changes or worsening of symptoms, it may be worth discussing with your doctor to adjust your management strategy.

Question 2

I've noticed that my nipples are puffy, but the rest of my chest feels fine. When I touch them, they squeeze, but I don't feel any pain. Is this something I should be concerned about or is it normal?

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you might be experiencing normal changes in the breast tissue, which can happen due to hormonal fluctuations, especially during pregnancy or changes in weight. As long as there's no pain or unusual lumps, it's usually nothing to worry about. However, if you're concerned or notice any changes, it's always a good idea to check with a doctor.

Question 3

Ive been dealing with wheezing, asthma, and frequent cough and cold for many years now. I use Asthalin inhalers and syrup every day for the wheezing and Ascoril syrup for the cough, but my condition seems to be getting worse over time. Im really worr...

Accepted Answer

It sounds like your condition may need a more comprehensive approach. I recommend visiting a pulmonologist to reassess your asthma management and explore options like long-term control medications (e.g., inhaled corticosteroids). If you're experiencing frequent worsening, consider visiting a hospital with a specialized respiratory unit, such as a multispecialty hospital with 24-hour emergency care. If the symptoms worsen, don't hesitate to seek immediate medical attention.

Question 4

Hello doctor, I am 27 years old and have been undergoing TB treatment for the last 2 months. I initially had swollen lymph nodes in my neck, and my physician diagnosed it as Kochs. They started me on AKT 4, but I had reactions like skin rashes and he...

Accepted Answer

It's common to experience side effects like skin rashes and headaches during tuberculosis (TB) treatment, especially in the initial phase. The number of injections required can vary based on your individual response to treatment, but 60 injections might be sufficient if prescribed by your physician. It's important to follow up with your doctor to monitor progress and address any concerns regarding side effects or treatment adjustments.

Question 5

My father tested positive for COVID-19 about a week ago. He only has a fever between 99-100C and no other symptoms. As a precaution, he had an X-ray done and the report showed 'prominent branchovascular markings bilaterally.' Hes currently quarantini...

Accepted Answer

The prominent branchovascular markings in the X-ray report suggest some mild changes in the blood vessels of the lungs, which can sometimes occur due to infections like COVID-19. Since your father is asymptomatic except for the mild fever and his diabetes is under control, its good that he's in quarantine. Monitoring his symptoms and maintaining regular blood sugar checks will be important during his recovery.

Question 6

Im looking for natural ways to help remove tar from my lungs after quitting smoking. Also, are there any vitamins or minerals that can support lung health for a healthier life?

Accepted Answer

To naturally remove tar from lungs after quitting smoking, try steam inhalation, drink plenty of water, eat antioxidant-rich foods like leafy greens, berries, and other fruits, and consider supplements like Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and Omega-3 fatty acids; also, incorporate lung-friendly minerals like Magnesium, Potassium, and Selenium into your diet, and practice yoga, meditation, or deep breathing exercises to promote healthy lung function.
