Question

I've been having trouble with my nose getting blocked every morning around 5 a.m. for the past few days. I'm currently taking Telma 20 mg and Montair R10 once a day in the morning, along with using the Seretide 500 inhaler twice a day. Could any of these meds be influencing my symptoms, or is there something else going on? Any idea why this might be happening?

Question

I tested positive for COVID last year and now for the past two weeks, I've been dealing with a cough and trouble breathing, though there's nothing else going on. I've been using an oximeter, and my SPo2 levels are hovering between 92 to 94. I've been doing steam inhalations and gargling regularly which has helped a bit over the last few days. However, the cough is still bothering me, especially at night when I'm trying to sleep. Sitting up feels a bit better, but as soon as I lie down, the coughing starts and I just can't sleep. What could be causing this and is there anything else I can try to reduce the coughing and get some rest?

Question

I'm really concerned because I've been having this shortness of breath and dry cough for like a year and a half now. It's really unsettling and I just cant figure out whats going on. I dont smoke or drink, and I stick to a vegetarian diet, hoping that helps. Can you help me understand what might be causing these symptoms and what I should do next?

Question

I've been dealing with this nonstop coughing for the last three days because of a cold, and it's honestly so annoying. It's making it really hard to sleep, and it happens every time I get sick. I struggle to cough up the mucus; it's like I'm trying, but nothing comes out. I've already tried different cough syrups and antibiotics, but nothing seems to work. What do you think is going on, and what else can I try?
