I've been having this pain on the left side of my chest under the lower ribs whenever I take a deep breath, and it's been going on for three days now. Plus, I've started feeling short of breath during the same time. It's really starting to worry me. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?

View allI'm feeling a bit concerned because all my test results are fine, except for my X-ray, which shows something off. The bottom three ribs on one side aren't visible, and there's a thin layer around my lung. I'm wondering, can this layer be treated or removed with medication? I also feel some discomfort when I take a deep breath. Any advice on what might be going on?
what kind of layer is it, water or air . consult a pulmonologist

I've had this really bad cough for a week now, and it's not going away even after seeing an ENT. There's a lot of phlegm with it, and I've also got a cold. What could be going on? Should I be doing something different, or is there anything else I can try to feel better?
