Question

I'm worried about my smoking habit. I've been smoking 10-15 cigarettes a day for the past 10 years and really want to quit. I tried nicotine patches, but they didn't work long-term, and I ended up smoking again. What treatment should I consider? Should I go for homeopathy or allopathy with minimal or no side effects?

Question

What foods help repair lungs?

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 having trouble with my breathing lately, and it's really making me anxious. I did a PFT test recently, and I've attached the report. Could you help me understand what's going on?
