I'm feeling kind of worried because I've been experiencing some heavy breathing on and off for a few days now. I have an allergy and I'm already taking montelukast tablets and using my inhaler with 250mg three times a day. The weird thing is, I don't have any trouble when I'm walking or jogging, and my oxygen levels are good at 98%. Could you help me understand what's going on?

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been coughing for a few days now, and nothing seems to be helping. We've tried both grillinctus and coffdryl, and even a ginger molasses mix, but her cough isn't getting any better. Do you have any advice or recommendations on what might help her get some relief?

Glans Exposure and Skin Retraction Issue _Normal Variations_ 1. _Temporary exposure_: Glans exposure can occur temporarily due to sexual activity, especially if you have a foreskin that's naturally tighter. 2. _Skin retraction_: Skin retraction can take some time, especially if you're not used to frequent erections or sexual activity. _Causes for Concern_ 1. _Prolonged exposure_: If the glans remains exposed for an extended period (>24 hours). 2. _Discomfort or pain_: If you experience persistent discomfort, pain, or difficulty retracting the skin. 3. _Infection signs_: If you notice redness, swelling, increased sensitivity, or discharge. _Self-Care Measures_ 1. _Apply a topical cream_: Use a fragrance-free, non-comedogenic cream or ointment to reduce friction and discomfort. 2. _Wear loose, breathable clothing_: Avoid tight clothing that can irritate the area. 3. _Maintain good hygiene_: Gently clean the area with mild soap and lukewarm water. 4. _Avoid further irritation_: Refrain from engaging in activities that may exacerbate the issue.

I've been experiencing some random chest pain since I got over COVID back in May. It usually hits around the ribs or near my heart. I've had an ECG and echo, and even a stress echo, and everything came back fine. But now, with the colder weather, I feel this mild pain in my chest when I cough or do om pranayam, mainly in the heart area. My cardiologist thinks it's muscular, but I'm wondering if it could be something lung-related instead. Are there any tests I should consider to figure out if it's a lung issue or really just muscular?

take pantop 40 mg 3 days and do chest x ray

I'm feeling worried because I've been having this cough and a kind of vibration in my chest when I breathe, mainly at night or in the morning. I took cetcip l as my doctor suggested, and it seemed to help, but the symptoms came back just a day after finishing the medication. Should I be concerned about this? Is it something serious?

not that much serious
