I've been having some trouble with my breathing lately. It's like I can't breathe properly, even when I'm just sitting or going about my day-to-day stuff. Sometimes I feel this tightness in my chest, and I'm not sure what's causing it. Can you help me understand what might be going on? I'm a bit worried.

I'm a bit concerned about my mom. She's been having trouble with her breathing, and the nearby doctor prescribed her Spenzo 0.5. I'm a little puzzled because I thought Spenzo was more for mental health issues. Is it common to use it for breathing difficulties? What could be the reason behind this prescription?

Spenzo (sertraline) is an antidepressant used primarily for anxiety or depression, not typically for breathing difficulties. It's important to discuss the reasoning behind its prescription with her doctor, as it may have been prescribed for anxiety-related breathing issues or another underlying cause. Always seek clarification from her healthcare provider.

My dad's oxygen levels are fluctuating between 94 and 97. It usually drops a bit after dinner and tends to be higher around noon. He's got asthma, so I'm wondering, would it help if he took steam and did breathing exercises like Anulom Vilom? Any suggestions on how we can improve his oxygen level?

Patient is advised deep breathing exercises,jogging,swimmingquit smoking,eating healthy diet,drinking plenty of water, can improve oxygen saturation.
