I'm really worried about my mom. She's been dealing with a dry cough for about five days now and she's on Doxofylline tablets and Forcef 500. The thing is, she just can't seem to eat anything because it makes her feel nauseous, and she's getting so weak. Ive heard paneer might be okay to give her, but Im not sure what foods are best right now. Could you help me figure out what she should be eating?

I've been feeling like there's air getting trapped in my chest. It's similar to when you have to cough to clear out mucus, but this is deeper in my chest. I'm really worried it might be thoracic pneumothorax. What do you think I should do?
