I'm really worried about my dad. He's been having these breathing issues for around two weeks now, and he's coughing up some whitish stuff, but he hasn't traveled anywhere recently. We did an X-ray and it seems like his heart might be a bit enlarged. Could this be what's causing his breathing trouble? Our city's in lockdown and I can't get him to see a doctor in person. No doctors seem available in our government hospitals too, so it's a real struggle. He's currently on Levo Mac 500, Dezacor 6, and Montegesic LC. What should we do?

View allI've been dealing with shortness of breath for a couple of months now, and I constantly feel pain on the right side of my chest. I had a spirometry test and a chest x-ray, but everything came back normal. The doctor mentioned something about hyperreactive airways. What does that mean, and is there anything else I should be worried about or look into?

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've been dealing with some health issues lately and I'm getting pretty concerned. I'm 28 and moved to Bangalore about a year ago. I was diagnosed with Acute Urticaria back in July 2017, and it was manageable with medicine. But then, around May or June this year, I started noticing asthma-like symptoms creeping in, and now theyre happening all the time. The smallest amount of dust sets it off, or if the AC is turned off at work or home. Even laughing, which I used to do a lot, or sneezing, or talking fast triggers an episode. I've had heartburn a lot too and it seems to be linked to the asthma. I use Asthalin to help with the severe episodes. For the last couple of weeks, I've been waking up after only about 3 hours of sleep because I can't breathe well. I'm really worried about my health getting worse, so I'm wondering if there's any way to cure this. Any advice would be really appreciated.
