Question 1

I've been trying to quit smoking and managed to stop for a month, but I slipped back into having one cigarette a couple of times a week. Now whenever I do smoke, I feel this strong chest tightness and discomfort for a couple of days, and even hear a cracking sound in my trachea when I'm doing normal stretches. It's kinda freaking me out since I'm really trying to switch to a healthier lifestyle. Back when I was in the US, I used to take supplements like Glutathione, NAC, and Omega 3. Do you think those might help with what I'm experiencing, or should I be worried about something else?

Accepted Answer

consult cardiologist

Question 2

I'm having trouble with shortness of breath when I'm talking and especially after walking up the stairs. This has been going on for about three days now, and it feels like I'm under a lot of stress just to breathe. It's almost like what Id imagine an asthma attack to feel like. I've never dealt with anything like this before. What could be causing this sudden difficulty in breathing, and should I be worried?

Accepted Answer

might be due to asthma or reduced blood

Question 3

I'm having some trouble after using Kala hit spray on my balcony; I might've used too much. Ever since then, I've been having breathing problems and discomfort. I saw a cardiologist who ran several tests, like hemoglobin, thyroid, chest x-ray, and echo, but they all came back fine. Even with that, I'm still feeling uneasy and it's hard to breathe. What should I do?

Accepted Answer

Normal,nothing to worry ok.

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.
