I've been dealing with a terrible barking cough for the past three days and it's making my chest hurt from all the coughing. Everything I've been coughing up is clear, but I'm getting worried that it might be something more serious than just a cold, especially since I used to smoke. Could this be a sign of something else?

View allI just got my x-ray results back and it says there's prominence of broncho markings in both of my lungs. I'm currently dealing with bronchitis and taking medication for it. Is there a chance this condition could be reversed? Also, I decided to quit smoking right after seeing the x-ray. Would love to know your thoughts on all this!

So I've been able to exercise for quite a while without issues, and my peak flow readings are always solid, like around 550-600, and I'm 17 and about 174 cm tall. But lately, I've got this minor cold, and I've noticed something weird. When I breathe normally, I don't hear anything strange, but when I try to exhale really fast and hard, there's this wheezing sound. Is that normal? Could it just be anxiety causing this wheeze? Just trying to get some clarity on what's happening.
you can exercise for 1 hour. anxiety will not cause wheezing

I'm really worried about my dad who was admitted to the hospital. The doctors put him on a ventilator even though his saturation was 97-100 on ventilator and around 92-95 on bipap at 60 ni mode. His carbon levels were at 56 and oxygen at 78 in his blood. Can you help me understand why they used the ventilator?
because with only ventilator the saturation is normal
