What could be causing my 10-year-old son's recurring chesty cough and breathlessness?

Patient's Query

My 10 year old son, has a very chesty cough. He had this cough 4 weeks ago it subsided and now he has woken up today with it. Dry cough no tightness in the chest, a bit breathless. He suffers with Chronic Migraines he takes Sumatriptan upon bad migraines. He also suffers with asthma

Answered by Dr. Babita Goel

You should first take your son to a paediatrician whose diagnosis might be more accurate and efficient because your son also suffers from asthma. Besides, the pediatrician can refer a pulmonologist in you have to. The patient shouldn't take drugs on his own, but should only use medications prescribed by a doctor.

The doctor prescribed me a medicine (megapin) of 500mg but the megapin I got has a label 250/250 mg does that mean the medicine is total 500mg?

Male | 60

Whe­n medicine labels show 250/250 mg, it me­ans there are two ingre­dients, each with 250 mg. One table­t contains 500 mg (250 + 250 = 500 mg). You're getting the corre­ct dose your doctor prescribed. Follow the­ instructions for how many tablets to take.

Male | 33

Getting a TT inje­ction means you should avoid alcohol for 24 hours. Consuming alcohol immediately afte­r could lead to increased sore­ness where you re­ceived the inje­ction. It may also reduce how effe­ctive the vaccine is.

Hello sir,i want to know before 3 months a dog bite me and i take 3 injections and doesn't take 2 more injections,and after 3 months a new dog bite me what I do please suggest me

Male | 26

Dogs have the potential of infecting you if they bite. Bitten twice by dogs is a matter of concern. When you miss some injections, this could indicate that you are not fully protected. Infections may cause symptoms such as redness, swelling, warmth, and pain in the bite area. You must visit your doctor to get a proper evaluation and treatment, which may include additional vaccinations to avert complications.

It is necessary to mention that chest X-ray nodule can be seen even in case of diseases with various outcomes – from benign to fatal. I hope that you will seek the help of a pulmonologist or a chest specialist to obtain the appropriate diagnosis and treatment plan. They will lead you through the process and offer all the information on how you can stop other nodules from developing.
