I've been having shortness of breath for about a week now, and it seems to be getting worse every day. I saw a physician last week who thought it might be related to acidity, so I took medication for that, but it hasn't really helped my breathing at all. It gets particularly bad at night, although once I'm asleep, it's not an issue. I've noticed that as I become more aware of my breathing, the problem seems to intensify. I've got a bit of a cough in my throat and occasionally my nose gets blocked, which only adds to the difficulty. I end up having to breathe through my mouth and yawn a lot just to feel like I'm getting enough air. Do you have any idea what might be going on?

Since the medication for acidity hasn't helped, I recommend revisiting your doctor to reassess the cause. Given that the symptoms are persisting and worsening, further investigation is important to rule out conditions like asthma, allergies, or heartlung problems.
Track your symptoms: Keeping a diary of your symptoms (when they occur, their severity, any triggers) can be helpful for your doctor to get a clearer picture.
Consider seeing a specialist: If your physician is uncertain, you might want to see a pulmonologist (lung specialist) or an ENT specialist (for sinus or throat issues).

I'm not sure what to doshould we continue with the monocortil or try something else? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I'm having this wet cough for the past five days and whenever I cough, there's a bubbling sound in my chest. The phlegm is clear but I'm a bit worried. What could be causing this?

I'm a 25-year-old guy and I've been having this breathing issue for about two weeks now. It really feels like the air isn't reaching my lungs properly, so I'm finding myself having to take really deep breaths or breathe through my mouth more often. I went to see a doctor and they did a respiration test that turned out fine, but I'm still experiencing the problem. I'm a bit worried and could use some guidance or advice. Any insights would be really appreciated.
