I'm experiencing some breathing difficulties when I first start walking, but it seems to get better after a bit. Could this be related to anxiety? I'm a bit worried and not sure what's going on. Would appreciate any advice you might have.

I've noticed something odd with my cigarettes lately. Whenever I smoke, the filter turns brown. This has been happening for the past couple of weeks. Could you please let me know what's going on? It's starting to worry me.

I'm feeling really concerned because I've had chest congestion for almost two months now. Whenever I take a deep breath, there's this tightness in my airway, and it almost always triggers a cough. Most of the time, it's a dry cough, but sometimes there's some phlegm too. I haven't tried any medication yet, just some natural remedies. This seems to happen once a year for the past few years. Should I be worried, or is there something specific I should be doing?

Ecg and x-ray chest pa view is advised to the patient.
