Question 1

I'm dealing with some chest pain that's been bothering me since January. I've done an ECG, echo, TMT, chest X-ray, and sputum test, and everything came back normal. The pain has decreased a bit since then, but it's still there. Plus, every morning at around 5 am, phlegm comes up, and I notice a bit of a cough when I exercise. Also, my chest starts getting irritated when I sit in an A.C. environment. Could you suggest some precautions or any advice on what might help? I'm really looking for some guidance here.

Accepted Answer

Salbutomol inhaler and budesonide 200 sos is advised for breathing difficulty.

Question 2

I'm really concerned because I recovered from COVID about a month and a half ago, but I've had this persistent cough for the last two months. There's no mucus, flu, or cold symptoms accompanying it. Should I be worried about this lingering cough, and is there something I can do about it?

Question 3

I'm feeling really breathless for the past 5 days, but I don't have any cough or flu symptoms. I've tried taking anti-allergic and anti-acidic nasal sprays, and Ive been using steam. I've also taken Novacef 500, Xyxal M, and Sompraz 40. I've got some relief, but it's not completely better. Could you give me some advice on what else I might try?

I'm experiencing some pain near my ribs when I breathe in and I also feel short of breath after climbing stairs. I went to a cardiologist and all the tests came back normal, so they recommended I see an orthopaedist. Should I go to a pulmonologist instead to get this checked out?
