Hi, I have a sinus infection bronchitis and an ear infection. I have been on meds for 24 hours but I don t feel any better and my belly is swollen and I m having bad chest pain on the right side, from under my breast by my rips to my shoulder in to my arm, also I m very short of breathe, gasping for air. Is it possible to have something more serious?
As per your complain you have problem of bronchitis and sinus with ear infection present. You are under a medication. Bronchitis lead to more difficulty in breathing and discomfort on chest. Consult a pulmonologist for proper auscultation of respiratory sounds. Mention which drug you are taking. If more respiratory difficulty occurs than steroid can be given under doctor's suggestion. Chest x-ray can be done for further diagnosis. Proper coverage of drugs is helpful in bronchitis.
Lack of irritation to respiratory tract lead to fast improvement. Anti-inflammatory drugs, antibiotics and decongestant are helpful in sinus infection. Avoid fry food and more cold food. Drink plenty of water per day.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Rachana Goswami
