I'm 20 and never smoked but I've been diagnosed with chronic bronchitis. How long might it take to heal? I've also uploaded my chest X-ray imagecould you tell me if it looks serious?

View allI've been dealing with asthma for about 10 years now, and it's really frustrating. I don't smoke or drink, and I eat meat, but I'm always just resorting to my inhaler. My family doc thinks it's just an allergy, but I'm really hoping to find a way to get past this. Do you have any insights on how I might be able to cure or better manage my asthma?
there's no permanent cure ,you should avoid the allergic agent

I'm finding myself taking really deep breaths more often, and it feels like I'm putting in extra effort just to breathe sometimes. Is this something that's normal, or do you think I should get it checked out with some tests?
Normal,nothing to worry ok.

I've been feeling kind of worried since yesterday. I was spray painting my bathroom cabinet for around 5 to 10 minutes, and I didn't use a mask. About 20 minutes later, I started feeling short of breath. Today, I'm still experiencing some shortness of breath, though not as intense as before, and there's a bit of coughing. A friend gave me some cough drops which helped a bit, but I'm concerned if I should just wait it out a few more days or if it's necessary to head to the hospital. What do you think?
Its possible that inhaling the spray paint fumes irritated your airways, causing shortness of breath and coughing. If your symptoms are improving, rest, stay hydrated, and avoid irritants. However, if you feel worsening shortness of breath, chest tightness, or persistent discomfort, its best to visit a hospital for evaluation.
