I've been dealing with a cold for the past three days, but now it seems like I have chest congestion that's making it really hard to breathe, especially when I'm trying to sleep. Any idea what's going on or what I should do about it?

I've been in the hospital for pneumonia and all my blood tests came back normal except for the ESR, which is a bit high. I saw my sputum test results on the doctor's phone, and it mentioned something about Haemophilus influenzae, which I looked up and found it's a type of bacteria causing pneumonia. They've got me on Taximax 1500, Pulmoclear, Zipod CV 200, Linowin, and some Mucolytic syrup called Ambrolite. I used to have a low-grade fever thats been gone for about 34 days now, but Im still dealing with this dry cough that just wont quit and gets worse a lot. Its been six days since treatment started, and Im still in the hospital. How much longer do you think it'll take for me to recover with the treatment Im on currently?

Yes,continue same treatment as advised by the physician.Patient is advised tab levocetrizine 10 mg orally,at bedtime for 5 days .

Sir, my X-ray came back normal, but my doctor mentioned asthma even though I've never had it before. I'm feeling breathless while sleeping. Could this really be asthma or something else? I've attached my file for you to have a look.

I've been having some breathing issues and lung pain ever since I got the covid vaccine. I tried taking medicine for bronchitis, but it didn't fully help. Then I saw a gastroenterologist and started on medication for acid reflux. After my second vaccine dose, my breathing problems got really bad again. It's been about three months of taking meds now, but I'm still struggling. I've never had covid before. What should I do next?
