I've been having chest pain for about two weeks now, mostly on the left side under my breast. It's really uncomfortable because it gets worse when I lie down and feels like it's traveling to my back. Breathing deeply is painful, like a pinching feeling, and sneezing isn't an option because of the pain. I also feel like there's mucus in my throat, although I'm not coughing much. Last year around this time, I had a bad cough that lasted a month. When I saw a doctor last year, they had me do a chest X-ray and an HRCT, but those were normal, as was my CBC test. They gave me a painkiller with paracetamol since I had a fever in the beginning, but the fever's gone now. The chest pain isn't improving and seems to be getting worse. Do you have any advice on what I should do?

I'm dealing with acute bronchitis pretty often. It usually kicks off with a sore throat and then escalates to bronchitis, complete with mucus buildup in my chest and all that. I typically skip medication and just let it run its course, which takes about a week or two. I'm really wondering if this could be harming my lungs, though. Should I be considering medication instead?

I'm a bit concerned about my recent chest X-ray results. They mentioned there were suspicious infiltrates in the upper lobe, and I had to get an apicolordotic X-ray. Thankfully, the second test came back with no abnormalities. What does this mean for my health? I just want to understand if there's anything I should be worried about.
It means that while the chest X-ray initially showed some suspicious signs in the upper lung lobe, the follow-up apicolordotic X-ray did not reveal any abnormalities. This suggests that there are no significant issues in that area, which is reassuring. However, it's important to follow up with your doctor for further assessment if needed.
