I had intranasal MRSA and my doctor prescribed me mupricion. It actually made me contagious, why did that happen? Is it common

Answered by Dr. Babita Goel

You could be handling MRSA bacteria which normally causes infections. When contracted, a drug known as Mupirocin is prescribed for treatment. The bacteria may become resistant if not used properly for a long time such that it even stops working, thereby rendering one more contagious. Take note of any symptoms such as increasing redness, swelling, or pain, and consult your physician. They might need to change your therapy to assist you in feeling better. Whenever you are using your medication ensure that you adhere to what your doctor has instructed or else you may encounter some complications.

My daughter was suffering from pneumonia

Female | 4

You should seek immediate medical care for your daughter. Pneumonia is a severe illness that can easily cause difficulty in the respiratory system, among other serious diseases. Immediately, you are asked to visit a pulmonologist or pediatrician who specializes in the field of respiratory diseases for purposes of diagnosis and treatment. Early intervention can help prevent the complications and aid in fast recovery.

My mother has sarcoidosis fibrotic ILD patient.last night her oxygen saturation 87 to 90. But physically she is normal .plz suggest what should i do.

Female | 66

The scarred and stiff lung tissue in sarcoidosis fibrotic ILD makes it hard for air to get in.  If her oxygen level drops below normal, she does not have enough oxygen in her body. It can be really bad. Even if she seems fine, low oxygen can hurt her. Assure that her doctor’s instructions for using oxygen are strictly followed. In case there is no improvement, call for emergency medical services immediately.

I am a woman and have had a severe cold for about a week now.

Female | 22

A persiste­nt cold can be troublesome, with runny nose­s, coughing, sneezing, sore throats, and fatigue­. Viruses spread these­ common illnesses betwe­en people. Re­st, hydrate, and consider over-the­-counter remedie­s for relief. Gargling warm saltwater soothe­s sore throats. Seek me­dical attention if symptoms worsen or persist be­yond a week.

Recently I have been diagnosed with pleural thickening RT CP in x-ray

Male | 25

Pleural fibrosis results in thickening of the lungs lining and further development of breath problems and other symptoms. It may occur as a result of several different things like being exposed to asbestos or being infected by a certain bacterium or virus. I will recommend you see a pulmonodigist who can assess the exact condition and recommend a proper treatment plan.

My lungs crackling only for 2-3 min, before 1 month i had dry cough and cold

Female | 22

If you’ve had a dry cough and cold recently, it seems like you might have some crackling in your lungs. This is normal. The sound could mean there is still mucus present. To remedy the situation, drink more water and practice breathing exercises. If it persists or worsens, take time off work so your body can recover.

Wet coughing with chest tighness

It would be wise to consult a pulmonologist if you are experiencing symptoms of moist coughs associated with chest tightness. One explanation could be that it is bronchitis or a respiratory infection.

I am 22 years old and l am having breathing difficulties with chest congestion. I am forced to travel by air this week while l want to refrain from travelling. Please suggest me reasons l can give to be unfit to travel as l have a tight schedule to visit the doctor.

Female | 22

You are having hard moments with cough and chest pressure. These symptoms are the most common and may be triggered by the flu, common cold, or allergic reactions. They can also cause ear pain or a feeling of fullness due to the dryer air in the cabin. Before you can fly again or think of travel, you should prioritize a healthy and safe life. With resting, make the best of the situation by drinking more water and using a humidifier to relieve congestion.

I have been waking up a lot while sleeping the past few days. I work nights so I sleep during the day and I laid down this morning to sleep and then everytime I was about to fall asleep I felt like I wasn’t breathing

Male | 24

You could have sle­ep apnea, where­ breathing stops briefly during slumber. Classic signs: waking ofte­n at night, feeling breathle­ss before slee­p. It's vital to consult a physician, who'll propose remedie­s. Side sleeping or spe­cial masks frequently ease­ the issue.
