I'm dealing with chest congestion that's been around for quite a while now. I've got this annoying cough and it feels like something's just lodged in my throat. Any ideas on how I can get rid of it?

I'm experiencing frequent shortness of breath for several months now. I've always had a habit of taking deep breaths since I was a kid, but it's been feeling more uncomfortable lately. I mostly have a sedentary lifestyle because I'm working from home. What could be causing this and what should I do about it?

check your hemoglobin, start doing exercises

My grandma is having serious trouble breathing, and we're really worried. The doctor told us her lungs are damaged and weak, likely because she had a problem with kidney tuberculosis which spread. We've been going back and forth to the hospital multiple times this year for this issue. Each time, she's been given medications and nebuliser treatments, and she even had oxygen therapy just 10 days ago. But the breathing issues have started again today. Unfortunately, the doctor we're seeing isn't very open or clear with us about what's going on and what steps to take next. Who should we consult for a better diagnosis and treatment plan? We're desperate for some guidance here.

It seems your grandmother is suffering from several health issues. I will have to look into her old history and records and then can give u an opinion

I'm having trouble breathing when I'm lying on my back. It feels like the air gets stuck in my throat. But when I sit up and do some breathing exercises, things seem to get back to normal. This started around 8 to 10 days ago. I've also felt nauseous and had a tendency to vomit and I've been sweating for about 5 to 7 days. I don't have a fever, but I do cough continuously for about an hour or so. It got so bad that I went to the emergency room where they checked my blood pressure, breathing pulse, and body temperature. My BP was 15090. They gave me Razo, Montair, some cough syrup, and Betadine. But even after coming home, I'm still having trouble breathing when lying down and also have chest pain and a feeling of lethargy. Do you think this is serious? Can you suggest any home remedies? And when should I think about visiting the doctor again? The breathing issues are less serious than before, but I still have mild chest pain. Should I wait for about 12 days and see if it gets better before going back to the doctor?

do steam inhalation for 3-5 days atleast 5 times a day. if still symptoms persists visit a doctor
