I've just got my health check-up done, and while most things are in the normal range, my eosinophils count is a bit high at 11.6. I've started taking banocide tablets for the past couple of days. Lately, I've begun feeling a little uneasy when I breathe. I did an ECG and chest X-ray, and those came back normal. Do you think the banocide will help with the breathing issue, or should I be looking into other medication?

I've been feeling really worried about some symptoms I've been having and I need some advice. I saw a news report from a doctor saying that taking excessive steam can lead to pneumonia. I've been taking really hot steam three times a day with the gas on for about 45 days straight, starting since August. Since then, I've been experiencing a really itchy throat, pain in my nose, upper chest, upper back, neck, and shortness of breath. During winter, I get these severe chills. Ive done so many tests like cbp, crp, serum creatinine, serum uric acid, thyroid, vitamin b12, vitamin d3, nt pro bnp, calcium, eeg, but everything comes back normal. I've used medicines like azee, doxcyp, bilagra, salt gargle, betadine, Medrol, pregabalin, and mk flutron, but nothing is helping. If I'm lying down in bed, there's no pain, but as soon as I get up, there's severe upper back pain and I'm unable to sit or do any work. I also feel too much shortness of breath, throat itching, and nose pain. It's not COVID because I had an hrct chest to rule it out which showed corads 2 infective etiology and bilateral minimal pleural effusions. I've visited many doctors but still don't feel any better. Can you help me understand what's going on and what I can do next?

Yes,continue same treatment.Ecg and x-ray chest pa view is advised to the patient.

I'm really concerned about my oxygen levels since I've tested positive for COVID-19. As of May 2nd, my oxygen level is at 92. The PCR results showed I'm COVID-19 positive with an E gene Ct value of 23 and an RdRp gene Ct value of 21. What do these Ct values mean? Should I be worried about the oxygen level too? Is there anything specific I need to do or look out for?

I'm really concerned about this persistent cough that's been going on for quite a while now. The cough medicine doesn't seem to be helping at all. There are no other signs of a cold or anything, but she keeps coughing, especially during meals, while cooking, and at night. It's a bit confusing, and her eyes get watery, and there's itchiness in her throat when she coughs. Why might this be happening?

Probable diagnosis is upper respiratory tract infection.Patient is advised tab augmentin duo 625mg thrice daily, for 5 days, tab pan d,orally once daily for 14 days ,syrup sucralfate 10ml thrice daily for 14 days.Also avoid spicy and hot items is advised to the patient.
