I struggle with breathing every April and October and need to use a Rotahaler in emergencies. I get a tight chest, wheezing, cough, and cold, and this happens with every change of the weather. Some doctors have mentioned it might be due to sinus issues. How can I manage or find relief from asthma or bronchitis?

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?

Patient is advised pulmonary function test (PFT)and a chest x-ray .

I'm having trouble breathing and feel like I'm half yawning a lot for the past three days. I had corona about a month ago but don't have any symptoms of it now.

I'm trying to make sense of a chest ultrasound report and figure out if a pleural effusion should be drained. Is there any way to tell how much fluid is too much, or any specific measurements I should be looking for? I'm really unsure about what indicates a need for drainage.

it should be done clinically
