I'm really worried about bronchitis and I'm trying to understand the different sounds a doctor would hear through a stethoscope, like ronchi, wheezing, or crackles. Could you explain what these sounds mean and how they're related to bronchitis? Would be really great if you could help me out with this.

I'm a bit puzzled about something and could use your advice. I've heard that Ayurvedic or organic cigarettes are supposed to be safe, but they still contain smoke. Is there really a difference health-wise, or should I be just as cautious with them as regular cigarettes?

I've been dealing with this bronchitis and allergy issue for the past nine months and it's really starting to bother me. On top of that, I've had this annoying chest tightness and back pain for the last six months. Do you think these are all connected somehow, or should I be looking at them separately? What could be causing these symptoms, and how can I get some relief?
