I'm having this odd itching sensation in my left lung, just above my abdomen area. It's not there all the time, but when it hits, it really bothers me. There's nothing else going on symptom-wise that I've noticed. Could this be something I should worry about? What's possibly causing it?

View allI've got this horrible chest congestion, and coughing is just unbearable because my whole chest hurts. Plus, there's this wheezing sound like a lion's roar every time I exhale. This all started after I decided to run for about five minutes, and it was my first attempt after nearly three months. I used to smoke but quit a year ago. I'm really worried about what's happening. Could you help me understand this?

I'm a 34-year-old woman and I've been struggling with wheezing, asthma, and a constant cough and cold for years now. I've been using Asthalin inhalers and syrup every day for my wheezing and Ascoril syrup for the cough, but it just feels like things are getting worse. I'm really worried and wondering what kind of treatment I should be looking into, or if there are certain doctors I should meet, especially if things get critical. Can you give me some advice?
It sounds like your condition may need a more comprehensive approach. I recommend visiting a pulmonologist to reassess your asthma management and explore options like long-term control medications (e.g., inhaled corticosteroids). If you're experiencing frequent worsening, consider visiting a hospital with a specialized respiratory unit, such as a multispecialty hospital with 24-hour emergency care. If the symptoms worsen, don't hesitate to seek immediate medical attention.

I'm a bit worried after my spirometry test for a job preemployment check. The doctor mentioned something about a mild restriction. Does this mean I might be considered unfit for the job? I've attached my report to get some clarity on this. Can you help me understand what it all means?
