I'm experiencing some breathing difficulties that started last night and seem to come back every two hours. It's getting worse and now I'm not able to breathe comfortably at all. Could you please help me understand what's happening and what I should do?

View allI'm a 23-year-old guy and I've been dealing with a dry cough for over two weeks now, and I'm really not sure what I should do next. For the last five days, I've been taking a spoon of Benadryl before bed, and while it seems to help with the cough for the first half of the next day, it comes back around 3 PM. I've also tried putting eucalyptus oil and Vicks on my chest at night, but I haven't really noticed much of a difference. Just recently, my mom started giving me this homemade herbal mix that I think has ginger and honey, along with turmeric milk, and it seems to be helping somewhat. Generally, I'm pretty active and into sports and running, and I haven't felt any drop in my energy or stamina because of the cough. It's just really starting to get on my nerves and I'm getting a bit worried. Could you share any ideas or solutions for what's going on with me?
It's good to hear that the homemade herbs mixture with ginger, honey, and turmeric milk is providing some relief. To further address your dry cough, I recommend trying Robitussin DM (Dextromethorphan and Guaifenesin) syrup. You can take 10ml of Robitussin DM every 4-6 hours as needed to suppress the cough and help loosen mucus. Additionally, you can continue with the Benadryl at night for its antitussive effects. Make sure to stay hydrated, get plenty of rest, and avoid irritants such as smoke or strong odors. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it would be advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I've been recovering from COVID for about 7 months now, and my CT score initially was 12 right after, but it dropped to 7 a few months later. I recently checked my SpO2 while lying down with my head on a pillow, and it was around 95-96, but when I sat in a chair, it was 98. Plus, I'm able to walk about 3-4 km daily without any issues. Is there anything serious I should be concerned about here?
no its normal ,no need to worry
