Question

I'm really worried about my dad. He's got asthma, just like his dad did, and Im not sure, but is having a cold related to asthma? Hes had a runny nose for about 15 days now. Could this be because of his asthma, or do you think it might be something else? What should we do?

I've been dealing with a really bad cough for the last week. When I saw a few local doctors, they told me it's a throat infection, and I even got three injections, including steroids, but nothing has changed. I recently started using a pump, but still no sign of improvement. What should I do next?

Question

I'm a 37-year-old woman and I've been having trouble breathing and experiencing chest pain under my ribs on the right back side when I'm lying down. It feels a bit better when I lay on my left side, but I'm not able to sleep well and even make grumpy noises in my sleep. During the day, I seem to be okay and can go about my usual activities, but I'm really worried about what could be causing this. I haven't had any symptoms like those of Corona, but I'm still scared to go to the hospital. What do you think could be going on?
