I went to the dentist a few days back, and since then, I'm feeling like I might have a cold or cough, or maybe something weird with my breathing. But there's no constant cough, sneeze, or fever. Could this be COVID? The dentist was wearing a PPE kit, but should I still be worried? How soon would any symptoms show up if it were COVID? I'm really stressed about this. Can you help?

I'm 22 and I've been experiencing shortness of breath pretty much all the time lately. It's been a few days, and I'm starting to get really worried because it messes up my ability to talk, especially while I'm working. Is it normal to feel like this every day? What could be causing it?

Feeling shortness of breath for several days isnt normal and could indicate anything from anxiety to a respiratory or heart issue. Since its affecting your daily life, I recommend seeing a doctor soon to ensure nothing serious is overlooked. Take care, and I hope you feel better soon!

I've been having some trouble lately and really need some advice. I'm 32 and have asthma, so I regularly use an inhaler. For the past few days, I've had a bad cough and cold. It feels like there's phlegm stuck in my chest, but no matter how much I cough, it won't come out. I tried taking Azithromycin, but it didn't help. Can you suggest any medicines that might work better? Also, I've been getting these sudden pains in my neck. I'm currently on pregabalin, nortriptyline, and myospas for it. Any ideas on what's going on or how I can feel better?
