Dr. Ladly Abraham, MD's Expert Contributions
  • Asthma and thc vape pens?

    Any sort of irritation to your airway can make your asthma worse and in the long run irreversible. So my advice is to stop before you start! READ MORE

  • Can I fix pneumonia at home?

    Maybe READ MORE

  • Trapped Air - lots of pain

    You are young and shouldn’t have hyperinflation to this extent. Are you a smoker? You may have alpha 1 anti-trypsin deficiency and need replacement. You will need a Pulmonary Function Test and perhaps a HRCT ( high resolution CT Scan) READ MORE

  • May have inhaled a tooth

    Get a chest x-ray to see if there is a foreign body in your airways. If present, you will need a fiberoptic bronchoscopy to retrieve the crown. Leaving it there can cause irritation, granuloma formation and post obstructive pneumonia. READ MORE

  • How long does pneumonia last?

    It varies. Viral pneumonia (majority of pneumonias) do not treatment with antibiotics and resolve on their own in 7-10days. This is provided you are not immunocompromised. Bacterial pneumonia need antibiotics and usually resolve in 7-10days with treatment. READ MORE

  • hyperinflated lungs

    Would like to see your PFT. would have them check an alpha 1 anti-trypsin genotype to rule out the deficiency causing emphysema. This can be treated with replacement therapy. READ MORE

  • Coughing for 7 months

    Since it has been going on for 7 months, I would wait for the CT scan result and decide on whether you would benefit from a Bronchoscopy. Differential diagnosis includes ABPA (allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis), hypersensitivity pneumonitis. Pertussis and RSV. READ MORE

  • What these results mean

    Depending on your medical condition, this could mainly indicate Atypical pneumonia like MAI or Peudomonas pneumonia. Would have you see a pulmonologist and decide on bronchoscopy READ MORE

  • Oxygen

    Strep throat does not make your oxygen drop. There must be other reasons. Have further work up. Cxr, CT Scan, CoVID test etc READ MORE

  • Lungs

    Depends on your risk for cancer. Are u a smoker? Did u have exposure to chemicals, toxins, asbestos etc? 6mm is still too small to biopsy but this will need a repeat follow up CT in 3 months, 6 months, and then a year. A 2 yr stability rules out malignancy. READ MORE

  • What medications are effective for child pneumonia?

    This is hard to tell. For a young person, if it is bacterial pneumonia, a Penicillin or doxycycline would be reasonable. Often, the infection is viral or if it is recurring, she may need further immunological work up. READ MORE

  • PET/CT scan

    You need to see a Pulmonologist. You will need follow up CT Scans and perhaps a biopsy based on your risk for lung cancer. READ MORE

  • work

    Yes you can continue to work. Your asthma/COPD can be controlled on appropriate inhalers. Usually a LABA/ICS combination inhaler with either Albuterol inhaler or the newer rescue inhaler Airsupra Aeroshere. Please ask your PCP or Allergist or Pulmonologist about this. You should have an Allergy test done, if not already done and avoid triggers both at your work and at home. READ MORE

  • Low Blood Oxygen Levels in the 70's

    From your history, I suspect you have obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. If you have difficulty, falling asleep, frequent nighttime arousals, early morning headaches, dry mouth, and feeling infested on waking wake up, combined with daytime sleepiness, you have a high risk for OSAS. I would recommend you see a sleep specialist in your area and undergo a sleep study or polysomnogram. This will confirm the diagnosis of not just OSAS, but also nocturnal desaturations. READ MORE

  • copd and thc edibles

    Please make sure that you confirm the diagnosis of COPD. You’re rather young and if you have not smoked or been in a profession with heavy exposure to smoke, I would have them check an alpha-1 antitrypsin level and genotype. You can confirm the diagnosis of COPD with your symptoms, and a spirometry. A mucosal swab is all you need to rule out alpha-1 deficiency. A high resolution CT scan will also be helpful if suspects emphysema secondary to enzyme deficiencies. READ MORE

  • Chest Pain

    I would recommend having a telemedicine visit with your primary care physician. You will likely require a psychiatric or psychological evaluation to rule up anxiety and panic attacks that may be responsible for your chest tightness and shortness of breath READ MORE

  • Brown specs in mucus

    Since you are just 19yo, I would say this is chronic bronchitis. This will occur as long as your airways are irritated….in this case from your smoking. It will subside over a few days once there is no more irritation from the smoke. Glad to hear that you stopped smoking. READ MORE

  • Can bronchitis turn into pneumonia?

    Not necessarily. Bronchitis is an inflammation of your airways, which is different from an infection. However, if this persists, the inflamed airway can occasionally get infected. Pneumonia is an infection mainly of the lung tissues and can infect the small/medium sized airways if not properly treated. READ MORE

  • I’ve been having some breathing issues

    At this age, the most likely cause is asthma. This is more likely if there is a family history of asthma or if you’ve noticed allergies. I would have a physician check a Spirometry (lung function test) and if this is normal, schedule a Methacholine Challenge test. Having difficulty breathing can cause anxiety, which worsens breathing and this becomes a vicious cycle. So please go have this checked. There are other diagnosis that can be entertained, but let’s rule out common ones first. READ MORE

  • How painful is a lung resection?

    If this is done by Video Assisted thoracoscopic surgery, the recovery is faster, and pain/discomfort a lot less. However, if this is done via a full thoracotomy, (VATS) the recovery time is longer and the pain discomfort more. In this day and age, most places/surgeons can do this via a VATS READ MORE
