My father had pain in right leg and he was unable to move. We took him to doctor in hospital where the doctor asked to get him admitted as it can be a case stroke I don't know why
We got him admitted on 1st july they did an MRI and said it is normal
Now they said the oxygen level is dropping so they transferred him in MICU
Now on 7th july they told us to buy or rent an BIpap machine along with an oxygen cylinder and to hire a caretaker
Now i have some doubts
Whether they got him admitted because the patient is a retired pensioner and everything is covered under insurance
The hospital just started a caretaking service are they promoting it
And how do i make sure whether a bipap machine is necessary or not because he had no breathing issues before getting admitted
Please help me if anyone can
Hi I m shivam rajput 15 years old and a class 9th student i recently visited a chest specialist to check my asthama condition I was going through cough and sneezing. i wnated to know wether my report is good or not and should I start doing swimming ?
Hello dr . l have had cough and breathlessness for 6–7 years. Asthma is not confirmed, and asthma treatment has not helped much. PFT showed FEV1 41% and FEV1/FVC 57% (poor-quality report). I also have palpitations, body-wide pulsations, fatigue, joint pain, muscle pain, eye pain reddness and elevated ESR/CRP. Which specialist should I consult first?
Two months ago, I had a severe cough and right-sided chest pain during breathing. A chest X-ray revealed a pneumonia patch. I was treated with 3 days of IV fluids and medications. Now, my cough is completely gone, but the right-sided chest pain has remained unchanged for 2 months. More importantly, I have recently developed new, mild breathing difficulty (breathlessness) which was not present during the initial infection. I am unaware of my current oxygen levels, but initially, SpO2 was 96-98%. Please advise on the next diagnostic steps or if a repeat X-ray is needed.
