I've been dealing with this issue of constant phlegm, and it's especially bad in the summer. Today, it just keeps coming up, and when I woke up, it felt like my throat was completely covered. I had to clear it out right away. What could be causing this?

I've been dealing with some troubling symptoms after testing positive for COVID-19 about 23 days ago. I initially experienced fever, cold, and cough, and took Paracetamol, Azithromycin, Vitamin C, and Zincovit syrup for about 6 days. I also did some Khadi steaming. But now, I'm having a persistent chest pain that's been going on for about 34 days. It hurts more when I take a deep breath. I've always had dust allergies and a wheezing problem, especially in cold climates. Thankfully, I no longer have fever, cough, or cold, and my oxygen saturation is between 95 to 97, but I'm worried because walking for more than 10 minutes is difficult. Could these chest pains be related to my previous conditions, or should I be concerned about something else?

I'm having a really hard time breathing at night and when I'm in places that aren't ventilated. It's been going on for a few months now. Should I be worried, and what might be causing this?

I'm a bit worried about these sharp shooting pains and heaviness in my chest. I also get really out of breath and start coughing even with just a bit of dust or smoke around. And if I try to talk while walking, I end up breathing heavily. Do you think you could help me figure out why I'm having these breathing issues? I'm a 25-year-old woman with a young child, and I've had two C-sections.
