I've been struggling to breathe properly for the past 10 months and I've already had two pulmonary function testsone back in December 2017 and another in March 2018. Could you help me understand what the results from these tests mean? I'm really concerned and just want to know what's going on with my lungs.

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with a dry cough for over two months now, and I've had breathing problems too. My head hurts a lot, and I've been vomiting. I got an x-ray, and it looks like the infection in my chest is getting worse. What could be causing all this, and what should I do next?

Tab augmentin 625mg orally thrice daily,tab levocetizine 10mg bed time for 5 days and syrup sucralfate 10ml thrice daily is advised to the patient.

I'm worried because he has allergic asthma, and right now, only 20% of his lungs are working. Is there any treatment or method, like therapy, medicine, or even surgery, that could help his lungs get back to 100%? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Try to identify the triggering factor and try to avoid it,that is the tretament for urticaria ,and levocet is the drug of choice,apart from that consume more fruits and stay hydrated that will help in fighting the allergen

I'm trying to figure out if occasional wheezing from allergies could mean I have asthma. I've noticed that using an asthalin puff helps when this happens, but I'm not sure if it's just wheezing or if it actually indicates asthma. Could you help clarify this for me?

Yes that could be due to Bronchail ASTHMA,visit Pulmonologist for further management
