Pulmonology Conditions Treated
at Nishchay Hospital, Akola
Many patients aren’t sure whether what they’re experiencing needs a pulmonologist.
Here are the respiratory conditions commonly diagnosed and managed at Nishchay Hospital:
Asthma
A chronic airway condition causing wheezing, breathlessness, and chest tightness, often triggered by allergens, exercise, or weather changes.
Lung Nodules & Masses
Abnormal growths detected on lung imaging, evaluated through further tests to determine their nature and appropriate management.
Pleural Diseases
Conditions affecting the lining around the lungs, including fluid build-up, causing chest pain and breathing difficulty.
Respiratory Allergies
Allergic reactions affecting the airways, causing sneezing, congestion, coughing, or breathlessness triggered by dust, pollen, or other allergens.
ILD (Interstitial Lung Disease)
A group of conditions causing scarring of lung tissue, leading to progressive breathlessness and reduced oxygen levels.
Chronic Cough & Breathlessness
Persistent cough or shortness of breath lasting weeks or more, evaluated to identify and treat the underlying lung condition.
COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease)
A progressive lung condition, usually linked to smoking or pollution exposure, causing long-term breathlessness and reduced lung function.
Respiratory Infections (Pneumonia & Tuberculosis)
Infections of the lung tissue causing fever, cough, and breathing difficulty, requiring timely diagnosis and complete treatment.
Sleep Apnea & Sleep-Related Breathing Disorders
Snoring and repeated breathing interruptions during sleep, affecting sleep quality, energy levels, and long-term heart and lung health.
Know the early warning signs
When to See a Pulmonologist?
When should a persistent cough be evaluated? If a cough lasts more than 3 weeks, or keeps returning, it’s worth getting evaluated rather than waiting it out – especially if it’s paired with fatigue, weight loss, or breathlessness.
Is breathlessness always related to asthma? No. Breathlessness can come from several causes – asthma, COPD, ILD, anemia, heart conditions, or even anxiety. A proper evaluation helps pinpoint the actual cause instead of guessing.
When does snoring require a sleep study? If snoring is loud and frequent, and comes with daytime tiredness, morning headaches, or witnessed breathing pauses at night, a sleep study can check for sleep apnea.
When is bronchoscopy recommended? Bronchoscopy is generally suggested when imaging shows something unclear in the lungs, when there’s unexplained coughing up of blood, or when a tissue sample is needed for diagnosis.
When should an abnormal lung scan be evaluated by a pulmonologist? Any chest X-ray or CT report flagging nodules, masses, infections, or unclear findings should be reviewed by a pulmonologist for proper next steps.
Symptoms That Should Not Be Ignored
Some symptoms feel minor at first but are worth getting checked properly. Consider seeing a pulmonologist if you notice:
- A cough that keeps coming back or won’t go away
- Shortness of breath, even during light activity
- Wheezing
- Chest tightness
- Repeated chest infections
- A cough lasting several weeks
- Blood in sputum (coughed-up mucus)
- Excessive snoring
- Pauses in breathing during sleep
- An abnormal chest X-ray or CT scan that hasn’t been explained
How Are Lung Conditions Diagnosed?
- Clinical Evaluation — Dr. Kedia reviews your symptoms, medical history, and any prior reports to understand the likely cause.
- Pulmonary Function Testing — Tests like spirometry measure how well your lungs are working and help identify conditions like asthma or COPD.
- Imaging — Chest X-rays or CT scans are used when a closer look at the lungs is needed, especially for nodules, masses, or unclear infections.
- Specialized Procedures — When imaging or symptoms need further clarity, procedures such as bronchoscopy, EBUS, or lung biopsy are used to reach a precise diagnosis.
- Diagnosis & Treatment Plan — Based on the findings, a treatment plan is created — this could involve medication, ongoing monitoring, or a referral for a specific procedure.
