I'm a bit concerned because my SpO2 level is 98, which seems normal, but I'm still feeling this suffocation when I breathe. I find myself needing to take deep breaths through my mouth. What could be causing this? Any thoughts or suggestions?

View allI've been having some issues with my left lung and just got my x-ray results back. It shows there's some blunting at the bottom of my left lung. I'm a bit worried about what this might mean. Can you help me understand what's going on and what steps I should take next?
Blunting at the bottom of the left lung on your X-ray could indicate fluid accumulation or scarring, which may result from infections, pleurisy, or other conditions.

I've been noticing these weird gelatin-like balls whenever I cough, and they come in different colors. I'm also experiencing some chest tightness and wheezing. What could be causing this, and is it something serious I should be worried about?
Coughing up clear jelly balls may be caused by a buildup of mucus in the airways. This may occur due to allergies or infections such as common colds or flu, accompanied with dehydration. If symptoms continue for more than a few weeks, it is best to contact a doctor to find out the cause and get treatment. If the color of the mucus resembles yellow or greenish mucus, it may be indicative of a bacterial infection, which may require antibiotic therapy.
