I'm dealing with a dust allergy and have been for 56 years. After a cold, it feels like my chest gets blocked up with cough, and I struggle to breathe properly. Over the past 3 months, I've started to notice a pain on just the right side of my chest. Can you help me figure out what might be going on and what I should do about it?
