Frequently Asked Questions
See a pulmonologist for a cough lasting more than three weeks, breathlessness that is new or worsening, wheezing, coughing up blood, repeated chest infections, or if asthma or COPD is not well controlled on current treatment. Loud snoring with daytime sleepiness is also worth reviewing.
A pulmonary function test measures how much air you can breathe in and out and how fast. It is used to diagnose and monitor asthma and COPD and to assess unexplained breathlessness. It is quick, painless, and done on-site at Prime Hospital, Kondhwa.
Asthma control is built on a regular inhaled preventer at the right dose and technique, a reliever for symptoms, identifying and reducing triggers, and a written action plan for flare-ups. With this in place, most people have few or no symptoms and normal activity.
COPD cannot be reversed, but the right inhalers, stopping smoking, pulmonary rehabilitation exercises, vaccination against flu and pneumonia, and prompt treatment of flare-ups can reduce symptoms, cut hospital visits, and slow decline. Your pulmonologist will tailor the plan to your severity.
Yes. TB is diagnosed with sputum tests and chest imaging and treated with a supervised multi-drug course over several months. Completing the full course exactly as prescribed is essential to cure the infection and prevent drug resistance, and the team monitors progress throughout.
