I'm noticing this unusual sound coming from my left lung when I breathe deeply, and it makes my left side vibrate. It goes away after I cough, but I'm still concerned. I've had three X-rays and those came back normal. I also did spirometry, and that was normal too. I'm a smoker, and my recent hemoglobin level was 17.90, RBS was 5.81, and PCV was 51.80. Is this something I should be worried about? Am I okay?

I've been experiencing shortness of breath for about 23 months now. When I talk for a while or have a conversation, I start struggling to breathe and sometimes get a pain in the middle of my chest. On occasion, I deal with a dry cough and my throat dries out. I even find it uncomfortable to wear tight clothing because it feels restrictive. Breathing sometimes causes pain in my back or chest. Last month, I had a stomach infection and took antibiotics for it. I saw a doctor who mentioned that these might be early asthma symptoms and prescribed Livolin, but it hasn't really helped. My chest X-ray was clear, but my lung function test showed its a bit off. What should I do now?

spirometry, methacholine challenge test

I'm feeling really worried because I've had symptoms like a fever around 100F, a lot of coughing, and this weird pressure on the left side of my chest and back for the last four days. I've stayed at home, isolated myself, and took a COVID test, but I don't have the results yet. I also have asthma and allergies to dust and smoke. Could you please suggest what precautions to take and if there's any medication I should consider?

I've been dealing with a dry and nagging cough for the past couple of weeks, and it's really starting to worry me. I've already tried levocetirizine tablets and several cough syrups geared towards dry coughs, but nothing seems to be helping. What should I do to find some relief?

take tablet mucinac for 5 days, two times daily
