Suggest Treatment For Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
My husband has COPD moderate, feeling unwell for few weeks , ha itch/dull ache / heaviness on left of chest going up into his throat and breathless . Blood pressure 170/80 and has had heart checked 2 weeks ago and all fine and chest sounded 1 week ago and clear. One day feeling good next day not so good again . Any ideas ? He is 48
I have gone through your query, i will try to give you suggestion which will be helpful to you.
Based on your description I think your husband has developed acute exacerbations of copd. He might need nebulization and antibiotics. Check his oxygen saturation levels.
This provisional advice provided by me is based entirely on the input provided to me. I would suggest examination by the doctor.
I hope this suggestion might be of some help to you. I will be glad to help you in case if you have any further queries.
Thank you
