Question

I've been yawning a lot and feeling like I constantly need to take deep breaths, almost like I can't get enough air. It's really weird and a little worrying. Is this something I should be concerned about? Could it be related to stress or something else?

Question

I'm having trouble with chest congestion every time I catch even a small cold or cough. It gets really tough because it leads to wheezing, and sometimes, taking a deep breath actually causes a bit of pain in my chest. I'm looking for advice on how to tackle this long-term. Can you help me out with this?

Question

I'm really concerned because Ive been checking my spo2 with a pulse oximeter every day, and its always around 98 or 99. But last night, I suddenly woke up and when I checked, my spo2 had dropped to 81. It went back to normal in just a couple of minutes. This is worrying me a lot because I had a chest x-ray done two months ago and everything looked fine. What could have caused this sudden drop?
