I'm having trouble with breathing and a persistent cough, and it sometimes feels like my throat is tight. My doctor checked my chest X-ray and said everything looks fine. I've been taking Montemac FX and Spirodin 650 regularly. Can you help me figure out what might be going on or what else I could do?

I'm having trouble breathing properly and there's always this wheezing in my chest. When I walk, it's hard to catch my breath, and I'm also coughing a lot. I've tried taking azithromycin 500 once and using Dilosyn syrup. Can you suggest something for this constant wheezing? Are there any home remedies that might help? It's really frustrating.

I only smoke around 2 cigarettes a day, so I'm really wondering what my chances are of having lung cancer right now. Also, what kind of tests should I think about if I want to check for it? I could really use some guidance here.

Lung cancer is diagnosed with biopsy,bronchoscopy,x--ray chest pa view,USG chest,CT thorax ,PET scan ,complete blood count and tumour markers like CEA-Carcinoembryonic antigen.
