I've been having this burning sensation in my chest whenever I inhale, and sometimes when I'm sleeping, it feels like my breathing gets blocked. Are these signs of something serious? Should I be worried about my breathing issues, even though I don't have other symptoms?

I'm experiencing some breathlessness when I'm walking or climbing stairs to the second floor, especially after coming home from work. My oxygen level drops to 90 for about 30 seconds to a minute before it goes back to normal. I also had a CRP test done, and the result was 15.6 mgL. Is this a normal level? What could be happening with my body?

I'm a bit worried because I've been dealing with a dry cough for about six months now. I did take a full course of an antibiotic syrup after consulting with my doctor, but the cough just keeps coming back. Interestingly, I noticed that when I traveled to Varanasi for a week, I didnt cough at all, but as soon as I got back to Panvel, the coughing started up again. Could this be related to something environmental or do you think theres another issue at play?

The persistent dry cough for six months, despite antibiotic treatment, and its mysterious disappearance during a 7-day trip to Varanasi, only to return upon coming back to Panvel, suggests an environmental trigger; consider consulting a pulmonologist or allergist to investigate possible causes, such as air pollution, dust, mold, or pet allergies, specific to the Panvel environment, and conduct tests like spirometry, chest X-ray, or allergy panels to determine the underlying cause.
