Specialised Treatments for Breathing Problems & Lung Infections

  • Asthma & Allergy: Doctors utilise precision medicine to control severe airway obstruction for patients with asthma. The chest specialist selects specific inhalers to optimise lung function.
  • Tuberculosis (TB): The team treats drug-resistant cases in accordance with national protocols. A dedicated TB doctor supervises your full recovery journey.
  • COPD Management: Chronic lung disease reduces airflow and physical stamina. Our advanced pulmonary rehabilitation therapies help patient maintain an active and healthy lifestyle.
  • Severe Infections: Sepsis protocols guide our care for bacterial or viral attacks. Doctors and chest specialist in Kolkata treating chest infections use culture-sensitivity reports to determine antibiotics.
  • Respiratory Failure: Acute distress requires immediate non-invasive ventilation support. Consult a doctor for breathing problems for high-flow oxygen therapy in our ICU.

Advanced Pulmonary Diagnostics & Services

  • Pulmonary Function Test (PFT): Lung doctors at Sanjeevani hospitals assess your airflow using advanced spirometry and DLCO tests. Such accurate measurements of lung capacity help diagnose asthma or COPD early.
  • Polysomnography: Doctors interpret your overnight sleep data to confirm obstructive sleep apnea. As a result, hospitals ensure precise treatment plans to improve your breathing during sleep.
  • Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy: Chest physicians perform flexible bronchoscopy to visually inspect the deep airways. Specialists also extract small tissue samples safely to detect infections or tumours for confirmatory tests.
  • Allergy & Immunotherapy: Hospitals identify specific triggers affecting the respiratory system through skin-prick tests. It helps you get clear answers to manage chronic cough or wheezing effectively.
  • Ultrasound-Guided Thoracentesis: The chest specialists use real-time imaging to drain excess fluid from the pleural spaces. The procedure relieves chest pressure and aids in rapid diagnosis.

When Should You See a Lung Specialist? (Symptoms & Warning Signs)

  • Persistent Cough: Consult a doctor if the cough persists beyond three weeks without relief. Chronic irritation often signals underlying respiratory disease.
  • Acute Inflammation: Search for a bronchitis doctor when thick mucus accompanies chest tightness. Acute inflammation requires timely medical intervention.
  • Severe Fever & Pain: Visit a doctor immediately for a high fever accompanied by sharp pleuritic pain. Neglected infections lead to severe pneumonia.
  • Shortness of Breath: Unexpected breathlessness demands accurate assessment by doctors. Dyspnoea which is common nowadays, indicates asthma or heart-related complications.
  • Haemoptysis: Blood in your sputum represents a critical red flag for tuberculosis or tumours. Immediate diagnostic scans ensure your safety.

Our units at Baghbazar, Baranagar, and Khardah offer consultations through the central helpdesk and online portal.
