Can a person just stop breathing without any issues? I constantly feel like I'm not getting enough air. I don't have any medical conditions, but I still worry that I'm going to die from not being able to breathe properly.

View allI've been dealing with a cough for about 20-25 days, sometimes it's wet, sometimes dry. I even caught a cold twice during this time. Initially, it was just a mucusy cough, but now I've got this mild pain in my chest, mostly on the left side but sometimes on the right too, and my chest feels heavy a lot. The mucus changes color, sometimes dark and thick, other times light and yellowish, but no blood. Most of the cold symptoms are gone now and the mucus has lessened. I smoked for about four years, around 3 to 4 cigarettes a day, but havent smoked in over two months since things got worse. There's no family history of similar issues, and I haven't had a fever. Could this just be a chest infection or is it something more serious? Please let me know what you think.
try syrup ascoril twice a day for 1 week

I've been dealing with this cough for about 10 days now and it isn't just a dry cough. There's some sputum that comes out every now and then. Should I be worried about this, and is there something specific I should be doing to help it go away?
take syrup ascoril twice daily

I'm feeling really concerned because I had COVID over 8 months ago, and it was pretty severe with CORAD 5 and pneumonia. Since then, I just haven't felt like myself. I have this ongoing pain in my chest, mostly on the left side, and now my eyesight seems to be getting blurry too. I did an ECG and echo back in October, and they looked fine, and I had a chest X-ray in December and another ECG in January, which were also normal. I'm really at a loss about what to do next. Which type of doctor should I see, and is there a chance I'll ever feel like I did before COVID without all these issues?
