My cousin's baby is in the hospital after his lung collapsed. He is now on a breathing machine. Has anyone ever had this happen before? If so, how long will he be on it and will he ever be able to breathe again by himself? Please help

It doesn't matter the environment I'm in my throat out of no where gets irritated, causing me to clear my throat. Except I clear and clear my throat and that doesn't always solve the problem. It starts to irritate other people because it takes so long for my throat to clear. Any ideas what it might be and how to treat it?

Has anyone ever had lymphnoma? Or infected lymph nodes that stuck around after you were sick? I am sick again and I found this hard lump below my right ear at the angle of my jaw- it doesnt really hurt though- but I found it before I got sick- I have been coughing for over 2 weeks and have plugged ears- I saw 2 different docs and they wont prescibe me antibiotics because they said all I need is antihistamine. But my cough is deep and there is a lot of congestion- since the lump was there before I got sick- I am wondering if it came from the last time and stayed...any feedback would be great ( I had a ct scan done but wont know results for a week!)

My roommate snores louder than the average person talks during the day. What can I do about this, if anything? I thought about bringing in a humidifier to soften the air a bit. Any other ideas? I can't exactly just come out and say "Dude, stfu." ya know? So any suggestions would be appreciated.

I had Bronchitis. I was having some problems with my breathing. i know its normal when you are sick with that, but even after all my symptoms went away, i still had that breathing probs. Not real big ones, it was more like breathing hard, or catching your breath after going up a real long flight of stairs. Went to see my doc and he game me Albuterol. Told me to take it as needed. How do i know when its needed? When i am breathing real hard? I dont want to overdoes on this stuff.

Everyone knows that the Phen-Fen combo caused such problems, but I know doctors that still prescribe phentermine (some for a year or more) by itself. Can taking phentermine alone cause pulmonary hypertension? My doc said probably not, I'm just wondering what others have heard.

I just found out my dad has Emphysema (he went into hospital after collapsing today). I'm not sure about this condition but I know it's to do with your lungs and he's smoked for many years (he's nearly 70). I just want to know if it's curable, if it's life threatening or terminal? The doctors are assessing him for a few days and I didn't get a chance to ask many questions. I would appreciate any professional advice even if it's bad news. Thanks.
