I've noticed nail clubbing in all my fingers and toes, but there's no pain, just big clubbed nails. I'm really concerned about it and would like to know how I can treat it. Could you please provide some advice or solutions for this?

Nail clubbing can be a sign of an underlying medical condition. In your case, since you do not have any pain, it is important to determine the root cause of the clubbing. I recommend consulting with a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation and diagnosis. Treatment will depend on the underlying cause. If it is related to a heart or lung condition, addressing that condition may help improve the nail clubbing. In the meantime, maintaining good overall health and keeping your nails well-trimmed can help manage the symptoms.

I've been having trouble breathing for the last few months, and the mucus is really thick and white. After I eat, it gets a bit worse, almost like my chest feels heavy. I've already done a chest X-ray and a complete blood test, and everything came out normal. With the whole COVID situation, I can't really go to a hospital right now. Do you have any idea what might be going on or what I should do next?

I'm really worried about my x-ray results that mention a mild peri hilar increase in the bronchovascular fields in both lungs. I've been having some mild breathing problems lately. Is this something normal, or should I be concerned about what's going on with my lungs?

I'm really starting to worry because even though I've been on the treatment for Tuberculosis since early August, I'm not seeing any improvement. I have these persistent symptoms like daily evening fevers and joint pains, and I've stopped losing weight but not gaining back what I lostI used to weigh 62 kg and now I'm stuck at 55 kg. The CECT scan showed some enlarged lymph nodes in different areas like prevascular and hilar regions, and I can't get rid of this feeling that it might be something more serious, like a malignancy. It's been 6 weeks since I started the treatment. Is it time to consider other possibilities or should I stick with the current treatment plan a little longer?

Continue same treatment ATT as advised by the physician.
