Frequently Asked Questions

A pulmonologist is a chest specialist who looks after lung and breathing problems. They treat things like asthma, bronchitis, TB, COPD, sleep problems, lung infection and all that. Basically, if you got issues in breathing or lungs, this is the doctor to go.

If you’re having cough that’s not going away, breathlessness, chest tightness, pain while breathing, blood in spit, or loud snoring while sleeping then don’t wait. Go and see the doctor especially if symptoms stay more than 2 weeks.

They might ask for chest X-ray, lung test (called PFT), CT scan, spit test, sometimes sleep test if snoring or sleep problem is there. For some patients, they even do bronchoscopy (they check inside lungs with a camera tube).

Most Chest Specialists charge around ₹200 to ₹700. If the doctor is more senior or famous, it might be on higher side. Also, if tests are done during visit, then that cost is extra.
