I'm dealing with an itchy throat and a tight feeling in my chest for the past four months. I've tried acidity meds, but nothing seems to work. I'm wondering if spondylitis could be causing these issues. I also feel like my anxiety has ramped up because of the whole COVID situation, which might be making it worse. And sometimes, it feels like I can't take deep breaths properly. Could you please give me some advice?

no spondylitis will not cause above symptoms, take steam inhalation

View allI'm having a really tough time with chest congestion, breathing issues, and a persistent cough, especially with the change in seasons. I also have allergies to dust. I've been using anti-allergy tablets regularly along with an inhalerEsiflow and Duolin. My local doctor thinks it might be bronchial asthma or COPD. I'm just desperate for a solution that can give me a better quality of life. Could you provide some guidance on what I should do next?

I'm really confused and concerned about this pinkish sputum I've been noticing in the mornings. None of the tests so far have pinpointed what's causing it. My PNS CT scan doesn't show any major sinus issues, and both my chest CT scan and nasal and throat endoscopies came back normal. The only thing they found was some minor erosions in my esophagus during the endoscopy, which got me a grade A diagnosis and some medications. But even with medication, the pinkish sputum hasn't gone away. My doctor mentioned it's unlikely the blood would come from my esophagus to my mouth. I've also done a CBC blood test, and everything looks normal. When this all started, I had mild rhinitis symptoms, and my ENT suggested it might be an allergy, so I took 1 zadonase and nasal spray for a month, but that didn't help either. I'm just at a loss and looking for any advice or insight you might have on this. What else could it be, or what should I consider looking into next?
Gastroenterologist opinion is advised to the patient.

I've been dealing with a cold and cough recently. My nose was stuffy and stayed that way for about three days, plus I had a burning throat for two days. I also had a fever for a day, but now, it's just the cough that's bothering me. It feels like there's mucus getting stuck in my throat. No other symptoms otherwise, but yesterday morning, some blood appeared in my sputum when I woke up. I had to cough pretty hard to clear my throat, but then I noticed a bit of blood again in the evening. Is this something I should be worried about? I took paracetamol and different cough syrups initially and montelukast for four days. I'm not taking any medicine now. Do you think I need to take something else?
That could be bronchitis,take adequate rest and consume balanced diet,visit physician for appropriate management
