I'm dealing with a cough that comes with phlegm and a bit of a wheezing sound. I took a chest X-ray PA yesterday and I've attached the report. Can you tell me if everything looks normal? Right now, I'm using Ambrocof LS for the cough. Also, I have a one-year-old baby. Can you suggest any medication for me?

I'm having this cough that hits every early morning, but then it seems fine for the rest of the day. I had an X-ray and my doctor said my left lung isn't clear. Do you think I should get an HRCT scan done?

I've been having issues with heavy breathing when I'm running or using the stairs lately, and Im starting to get worried. I'm a smoker and have been smoking on and offsmoked for two years, took a break for a year, and then picked it up again about three months ago. Could my smoking be causing these breathing problems? What can I do to improve this situation?

inadequate asthma control, we can see pain sometimes
