What Is The Treatment For Bronchitis And Liver Problems?
Hi Doctor,
My father was in I.C.U. He had a high B.P. & sugar. He had some clots in brain before. He was on medicine for that from years. His age is 58. These days, he starts feeling dizzy. He was then admitted. He got a mild paralytic attack. His epiglottis is not working. So, food is given to him by an artificial tube. His liver is secreting something & he got bronchitis too. Now also, he coughs a lot. He feels dizzy too. He is shifted to General ward. I want to know if why is this coughing & why does he feel dizzy? His face is lil tilted. He speaks from one side. Will he get well soon?

2.he is a diabetic poor immunity so develop pneumonia,
