Question

I've been dealing with this annoying dry cough ever since I recovered from a fever and cold last week. It feels like it's coming from deep in the lungs and has a lot of force behind it. I've been taking chericof for three days now, but it hasn't helped at all. I visited a doctor, got an injection, and he prescribed some meds, saying I'd feel better by the next day, but there's been zero relief. It's just this relentless dry coughno fever, body pain, fatigue, appetite issues, or high blood pressure. Do you have any idea what's going on and what I should consider doing next?

I'm really worried because my oxygen level has been fluctuating between 88 and 90 for the past three days. I'm 52 years old and weigh 95 kg, and my blood test came back normal. However, my CRP level was 35 mgL on April 13 and then went down to 8.60 mgL by April 27. What should I do about this situation?

Question

I've been smoking for about three years now and every time I light up, I start feeling this weird pain on the right side of my chest, near where my thymus is. It seems to go away after like 15 minutes, especially if I press on it, then I usually burp a few times and the pain just disappears. I'm a bit concerned, is this something I should be worried about?
