Thermal bath
Hello, I have a question concerning thermal baths. How is it there with humid-germs, especially the Pseudmonas aeruginosa? Has one actually to expect such germs there due to the salt content of the water? On the other hand, the water is very warm, which are good conditions for the germs. Many thanks for your answer.

Henoch-Schoenlein purpura as reaction to Pulmozyme®?
Dear experts, our daughter, 9 years old, is in a good general condition. However, she just had a common cold. Her immune system reacted normally, the fever disappeared after one day, then for 2 days increased temperature. She also had a strong cough in the upper area, no bronchitis, the lungs were free on auscultation. The treating hospital already recommended before the infection that our daugther should inhale Pulmozyme® (rh-DNAse). We started the therapy 3 days after disappearance of the fever. First pains in the joints already occured on the evening after. We inhaled for 3 more times. After the second time the red hematoma ressembling spots on the feet appeared and in addition very hard pain in the upper legs and feet. Then we went to the clinic and Henoch-Schoenlein purpura was diagnosed. We were told to go on with inhalation of Pulmozyme®. Is this recommendable? Could it not be that the purpura has been provoked by Pulmozyme®? Thanks for the answers.

After seeing a tobacco specialist, an ENT, ​​a chest X-ray was made and a CT scan of the sinuses .. still no diagnosis except allergic sensitivity. I want to know who I have to consult for a reliable diagnosis and for considering treatment.
