Question

I've been feeling this pain on the right side of my chest whenever I take a deep breath or sneeze. It's been going on for about two months, and sometimes it feels mild, but other times it's sharp. Plus, it hurts more when I do anything physical. The pain even goes up to my right shoulder and back. I don't have a cough or sore throat or anything like that, just this weird pain. What do you think it could be?

Question

I've been noticing some wheezing in my lower back chest whenever I take a long breath or even when I breathe normally. Is this something I should be worried about? What could be causing this?

Question

Ive been dealing with shortness of breath for about 5 years and all my tests like PFT, ECG, CT thorax, chest X-rays, 2D echo, and others came back normal. Ive even had them repeated in 2017 and 2019. Ive seen a lot of pulmonologists and cardiologists but nobodys been able to figure it out. It used to only bother me at night but now it happens during the day too. Even sleep meds arent helping now. Some doctors thought it was tension or weakness, but I'm quite active, exercising and doing yoga and pranayama daily. Night times are really tough and sometimes I can't sleep at all, even with meditation or taking stalopam plus. I'm only 21, so its really worrying. What do you think could be going on?

Question

I'm 65 years old and just got my X-ray results back. Everything looked normal, but it mentioned that both hila are congested. What's that mean? Should I be concerned? I don't have any breathing problems, just a rib fracture on my 7th rib.
