I've been feeling this really uncomfortable sensation like I might vomit whenever I'm in a cab or on a bus, especially if it's crowded. It's like I can't breathe properly and just feel really suffocated. It's starting to worry me. Could there be something going on that I need to address?

yes it happens that when you are in a place where enough ventilation or air circulation is not there or closed spaces will make you nauseous and choky...best thing is to relax yourself so that you breathe easy in such situations and avoid such places...the oxygen saturation also comes down.

I've been eating raw rice since I was a kid, and now I find myself doing it about 23 times a day. I'm starting to worry if this habit is harmful to my body. Can you advise me on how to stop this?

Eating raw rice frequently can be harmful to your body as it may lead to digestive issues and nutrient deficiencies. Try to substitute raw rice with healthier snacks like fruits or nuts to gradually break the habit.
