I've noticed I tend to take deep breaths pretty often. Is it normal or healthy to do so all the time? My breathing rate is about 15-16 breaths per minute. What do you think?

I'm really worried about my constant coughing and breathlessness, especially when the seasons change. It gets so bad that walking even a short distance is tough for me. Could this be something serious, and what should I do about it?

So I've been having this annoying cough lately, and now I'm feeling this weird pain on the left side under my rib cage, right below my left breast. Do you think the cough could be causing the pain, or should I be worried about something else? Its kinda freaking me out a little.

Ecg and cardiac markers are advised to the patient.

I'm really worried because I tested IGG positive in July and had an unknown fever in June. Now I'm experiencing a burning sensation in my chest and stomach, and sometimes it's a bit hard to breathe. I also feel dizzy all day and can't seem to have a restful night's sleep. I read somewhere that people could have lung issues after having COVID. Can you please advise on what might be going on?
