I'm really worried about my dad. He's 64 and has both asthma and diabetes, and I'm unsure if he should get Covishield or Covaxin. I'm so confused about whether any tests are necessary for asthma patients before getting vaccinated. I read that Bharat Biotech mentioned that people with allergies shouldn't take Covaxin, which adds to my worries. Also, I've heard about some people dying after getting the vaccine, and it's quite concerning. What could be the reason behind this? Can you help clarify these concerns for me?

View allI'm a bit worried because I've been dealing with blood-tinged sputum for the past month. I've had all the checkups and even got an X-ray, but everything came back normal. I'm 23 years old and recently quit smoking about three months ago. Could you help me figure out what might be causing this and which type of doctor I should consult?

I've been noticing this odd breathing noise coming from my throat. It's like a hiss, hiss, hiss sound when I breathe in and out, but it doesn't happen all the time. It usually shows up when I'm short of breath after running. I feel okay, but the noise has me a bit worried. It's kind of like a high-pitched puffing noise. Any idea what might be causing this?
The high-pitched "hiss" or puffing noise you're hearing while breathing after running could be related to slight airway narrowing or a bit of congestion, which can occur when you're short of breath. If you're not experiencing other symptoms like wheezing, chest tightness, or discomfort, it may not be a major concern, but if it persists, it could be worth discussing with your doctor to rule out any underlying issues like mild asthma or respiratory irritation.

I'm struggling with breathing issues for the past three months, like I cant get a good deep breath sometimes, and it's like something is blocking me. Plus, I'm getting this tight feeling in my throat. I had a chest X-ray, but it showed nothing wrong. Could this be due to my gas problem or something else? What should I do?
since chest xray is normal, need not to worry. reduce your stress levels
