I'm dealing with bronchitis I was told by a doctor here in Hong Kong. I don't really have stuff like breathing issues or chest pain but can you guide me on what meds I should take along with my inhaler? Also, I've had this annoying back pain for two days; do you think that's connected?

View allI've been having this sharp, needle-like pain in my upper right chest near my collarbone, especially when I breathe or move my head sideways, and it's been going on for about three weeks now. Before this, there was a constant pain in my shoulder that just kind of disappeared on its own. I'm really wondering what this could be? Should I be worried about this?
Could be due to inflammation of the muscles or tendons in that area. This type of pain can sometimes radiate from the shoulder to the chest. To help relieve the pain and inflammation, you can try taking over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medications such as ibuprofen (e.g., Advil) at a dose of 400mg to 800mg every 6-8 hours with food. Additionally, applying a topical pain relief gel containing diclofenac (e.g., Voltaren) to the painful area can also help. It is important to rest the affected area, avoid activities that worsen the pain, and apply ice packs for 15-20 minutes several times a day. If the pain persists or worsens, it is recommended to follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm dealing with this constant breathlessness and I'm not sure if it's from a cold or maybe GERD. I'm having a hard time expanding my chest sometimes, and when I wake up, one of my nostrils is often blocked. Ive had an echo, ECG, TMT, and a chest X-ray done, and all are normal. Every now and then, I take theophylline, which seems to relax things, but I'm still unsure what's actually causing these issues. Could you shed some light on what might be going on?
