I'm 20 years old and I've been having chest pain on the right side and shortness of breath for the last 15 days, especially when I breathe deeply. I'm really concerned about what this could mean and how I can recover from this. Can you help me understand what's going on and what I should do next?

I'm really worried about my grandfather. He's 75, and with his COPD and asthma, his breathing has become pretty challenging. There are these sounds when he breathes, and he seems to breathe from his stomach. Even just a little movement seems to make his breathing worse. It's like he can't be without oxygen at all now. His oxygen level is at 75, and carbon dioxide is 50. Could you help me understand what stage he's in?

I'm dealing with this flux and cough issue that keeps coming back every month. It usually takes about a week to get better, but it's been over a year now with no real solution. Is there anything I can do to get rid of this for good?

I'm dealing with a really heavy dry cough at night and it's gotten so bad that I can't sleep well. It's even causing stomach pain because I'm coughing so hard. This seems to happen a lot, like once a month, and then it sticks around for about two weeks. I've seen general physicians and they mention things like throat infections or seasonal changes, but it keeps coming back every month or two. I'm really trying to figure out what's causing this so I can find a permanent solution. What kind of specialist should I see to get to the bottom of this?
