I'm having some trouble with low breathing when I'm in hilly areas. I got my TMT and echo tests done, and they came back normal. Should I be worried about staying in the hills, or would it be better for me to move back to a more level area?

I'm feeling like my chest and lungs are always tight, especially after jogging or even just walking, I don't feel any relief or openness. I usually just smoke 1 to 2 cigarettes a day and drink alcohol on Sundays, but this tight feeling in my lungs just doesn't go away. Could this be related to my smoking habits or maybe something else? I'm a bit worried and would love some advice.

take a chest xray and proceed

I'm a 20-year-old and overall pretty healthy, but lately, I've been having this weird issue when I try to breathe deeply. It feels like there's a little clog or something in my throat, and it's like my breath gets stuck there. I end up yawning a lot to try and get a deeper breath. It's really noticeable when I'm exercising, and it's becoming a bit of a problem. I don't have asthma or anything, so Im just wondering what might be going on and if there's anything I can do about it.

take pantop for 3 days if it doesn't solve , do endoscopy
