I'm really having trouble breathing easily, even though I don't have asthma. It's like there's this hard mucus or phlegm stuck in my chest or lungs that's blocking the air. And every time I breathe, I make this whistling sound. Could you suggest some medicine for this?

I've been dealing with bronchitis for the past two months and it's really getting to me. I've tried all sorts of antibiotics, but nothing seems to help. Why isn't this going away? What else can I do to finally get some relief?

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

I'm looking at my X-ray report, and I'm pretty concerned. It mentions that the right hilar vascular marking is prominent, and for the cardiac area, it's not clear if it's normal or not. Plus, the CP angles are hazy. I'm really wondering if these findings are normal or if there's something I should be worried about health-wise. Could you help me understand what's going on?
