Question

I'm dealing with a cough problem for the past 15 days. I think it started because I've been sleeping in front of a cooler, and now it feels like the cough is stuck in my throat and chest. I've tried drinking turmeric milk, eating chana, having Honitus, and even using ginger and honey, but nothing seems to be helping. The cough just isn't coming out, and now my throat is really starting to hurt. What should I do?

Question

I'm experiencing some wheezing, but it's only happening when I inhale. There's no sound when I exhale, although I do have a bit of trouble with it. The wheezing and breathing issues are really just on the inhale. What could be causing this?

Question
