Question 1

Is it possible for me to completely get rid of wheezing if I stick to a strict medication plan, diet, and exercise within a year? I've been eager to join marine engineering since I was a kid, and I really need to get myself fully prepared for it. I've been dealing with wheezing for the past couple of years, mostly in the mornings when I wake up, but sometimes it happens at other times too. I'm set to join a marine college next year after finishing my BTech, and I need to be in top-notch medical condition. I'm thinking about starting swimming and running every day with the right medical advice and proper diet. Do you think this could help me get fit enough, without any wheezing issues, in a year's time?

Accepted Answer

Pulmonologist opinion is advised to the patient.

Question 2

I've been having this really sharp pain in my chest, mostly on the left side, for about a month now. It used to just happen when I moved a certain way or turned over in bed, but recently it's been happening more randomly, sometimes on the right side or in the middle too. Breathing in can be painful sometimes as well. I've got allergic rhinitis and asthma, and my allergies have been acting up lately. I'm finding myself out of breath pretty often when doing even small things, and it's hard to breathe at night since my nose gets blocked and I can hear wheezing from my chest. Could this chest pain be linked to my asthma? I'm starting to worry, and would really appreciate some advice!

Accepted Answer

yes the chest pain might he due to asthma

Question 3

My mom's been dealing with respiratory issues for the last 57 years and she was diagnosed with COPD, so shes been on treatment. She still uses an inhaler with a capsule whenever she feels breathless. Now, she wants to visit the chardham, specifically Badrinath and Kedarnath. Given the high altitude and extreme weather, I'm worried about how she'd cope. Do you think its safe for her to go on this trip?

Accepted Answer

its not advisory, but if want to go compulsorily, test her pulmonary function test and be ready for any emergencies

try doing some yoga breathing exercises
