Question

I'm feeling pretty uneasy these past three days because of some breathing issues. It's odd because I can run for 2 km without any trouble, but when I'm lying down, I'm experiencing shortness of breath. I'm also dealing with a bit of a dry cough. My blood pressure and oxygen levels are normal, though. What could be causing these symptoms?

Question

I've been non-stop coughing for three days now and the longest I can go without coughing is just a minute or two. There's a lot of phlegm and it's painful when I take deep breaths. I've already tried using my rescue inhaler and the nebulizer, but I'm still coughing a lot and wheezing. What could be going on, and what else can I do?

Question

My mom is dealing with Bronchial Asthma and I'm really worried. She recently had surgery to remove air from her lungs, but there's still some left according to the X-ray. She's a bit overweight and tries to walk every day, but she gets breathless after just a few steps. Can you suggest what might help her with this?

Question

I'm really worried because whenever I spit, there's blood, and it's been happening for the past week. I don't have a cough, but I do get a bit of chest pain. Plus, I often taste blood in my mouth. I'm a smoker and trying to quit. Do you have any idea what's going on or what kind of doctor I should see?
