Why is my son struggling to breathe with a high temperature?

It's understandable to feel concerned when your child has a high temperature and is struggling to breathe. These symptoms can indicate an infection, such as a cold or respiratory illness. It’s essential to monitor his temperature and breathing patterns. Keeping him hydrated and comfortable is key. Use a cool, damp cloth to help with fever. Ensure the air is humidified, which can ease breathing. However, it’s crucial to consult a pediatrician for a thorough evaluation and tailored treatment. They can provide the best guidance for his recovery and ensure he receives appropriate care.

Should I Get TMT and Chest X-ray for Shortness of Breath and High Heart Rate?

Shortness of breath, especially worsening at night, can be concerning. Given your normal heart tests and cholesterol levels, it might indicate other factors such as anxiety, allergies, or even respiratory issues. It's good that your oxygen levels are stable. A thorough evaluation, including a chest X-ray and possibly a treadmill test (TMT), can provide more insights. I recommend you consult your pulmonologist for further assessment, as they can guide you through appropriate next steps and ensure your well-being.

How to Restore Lung Health After Quitting Smoking?

To aid lung recovery, focus on a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables, which contain antioxidants that help repair lung tissue. Engage in regular aerobic exercises, such as walking or cycling, to improve lung function and stamina. Stay hydrated to help clear out toxins. Additionally, practicing deep breathing exercises can enhance lung capacity. While many experience improvements over time, if you notice any persistent symptoms like coughing or shortness of breath, please consult a pulmonologist for personalized advice.

Why is my 3-year-old son struggling with breathing?

I understand your concern for your child, Muhammad Arham. It sounds like he experiences periods of breath-holding when upset, which can be alarming. This may happen due to a response to strong emotions like fear or frustration. Although these episodes can be distressing, they are often not serious. Continue to gently support him when he is upset, and encourage calm breathing. However, it is important to have a pediatrician evaluate these episodes, especially since they have occurred multiple times.

Could ESR of 65 indicate TB with persistent cough?

A persistent cough lasting several months can have various causes, ranging from infections to allergies. An elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) indicates inflammation in the body but does not specifically point to tuberculosis (TB). Common symptoms of TB include prolonged cough, weight loss, fever, and night sweats. It’s essential to consult a pulmonologist for an accurate diagnosis and personalized care. Tests may be needed to determine the root cause of your symptoms.

Is my cough with sputum and drinking normal?

It's understandable to be concerned about your symptoms. Coughing with sputum can indicate a respiratory infection or irritation, often linked to smoking. The presence of sputum is normal; however, it’s wise to monitor its color and consistency. Persistent issues warrant a consultation with a pulmonologist for proper evaluation. Quitting smoking would greatly enhance your lung health and reduce symptoms. Staying hydrated and considering over-the-counter remedies may help alleviate discomfort.
