My son has been suffering from fever and a persistent cough for the last year. I've consulted many hospitals, but there's been no improvement in his health. The fever returns every ten days, and the cough is a constant issue. What could be causing this, and what should we do?

I've been noticing that I only take deep breaths when I think about it, but when I'm busy or asleep, I don't feel the need to. I saw my family doctor, and he told me to do exercise, but I'm constantly thinking about my breathing now and it's making me a bit worried. I've had an ECG and x-ray, and everything's clear. Could you give me some advice?

it is because of your anxiety, so reduce your stress
