[|Human|] Hi Dear, I stay in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia with my mother, she is 70 years old and she is really suffering from the shortness of breath. I need the contact number for Dr. Baharul Islam or please provide me in which hospital he meets the patients. Regards, Mohammed Riaz (+966 50182 5262)
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Breathlessness in old age (70 years) is commonly seen in heart and lung related diseases. So better to consult doctor for your mother and get done 1. ECG 2. 2d echo. Both these are needed to rule out heart diseases. If both are normal then no need to worry about cardiac diseases. Get done 1. Clinical examination of respiratory system 2. Chest x-ray 3. PUT (Pulmonary Function Test). These are needed to rule out lung related diseases. She may need inhaled bronchodilators and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) according to the diagnosis. So better to first diagnose her and then start appropriate treatment. Hope I have solved your query. Wishing good health to your mother. Thanks.
