I'm experiencing this weird thing where every time I breathe, there seems to be a sound coming from my lungs, and I start coughing non-stop. Plus, I can't seem to get a good night's sleep because of it. Do you think there's something wrong with my lungs, or could it be something else?

I'm just curious about something and a bit worried. Is it possible for a condition like asthma, which has been pretty much under control, to start acting up after getting a COVID vaccine? I've heard some stories and just want to know if there's anything to that.

yes it can trigger asthma

I've been dealing with a persistent cough and lots of phlegm for the past three weeks. The phlegm is really thick and sticky, and its usually yellow or green. Ive tried antibiotics, cough medicine, drinking more water, and several home remedies I found online, but nothing seems to completely clear it up. My cough is mostly dry and happens a lot in the mornings and at night, but Im still dealing with so much sticky phlegm. Do you think this might be a viral or bacterial infection? Any advice would be really helpful.
