Question 1

I've been diagnosed with bronchitis after checking my x-ray, and I've taken a lot of antibiotics, but now I'm having pain on the lower right side of my chest. The weird thing is I don't have any cough at all. I've just started taking Prentiss 800. What should I do next? Any advice would really help.

Accepted Answer

it's gastritis because antibiotics will cause gastritis sometimes

Question 2

I'm dealing with asthma and have been using a Levolin inhaler, but Im really looking for a more permanent solution. Is there something I can try or consider that might help in managing or perhaps even curing my asthma over the long term?

Accepted Answer

Salbutamol inhaler and budesonide 200 sos is advised for breathing difficulty.

Question 3

I'm really worried about my uncle, he's 62 and has IHD. He's dealing with this massive left-sided pleural effusion and he's been in Railway hospital Bhaykhala with an ICD in place. We've been seeing a daily output of about 350-400ml of pleural fluid that's yellowish with a slight reddish tinge. The doctors at Tata hospital did two cytology tests for malignant cells and both came back negative. A PET-CT scan showed a small extra pleural nodule about 11x7mm at the pulmonary confluence, needing histopathological correlation, and the SUV max is 4.3. They've tried Augmentin and Magself Cefoperazone, but the fluid output hasn't changed. They've recommended a biopsy of the nodule. I'm just wondering if there are any other treatment options we could consider.
