I've been dealing with a chronic belching problem ever since my first chest tube 3 years ago. This week, I was back in the hospital with another chest tube, and interestingly enough, I barely burped at all while I was there. Now that I'm back home, the burping has started up again, and it's painful to take a deep breath. I'm really worried my lung might have collapsed again. Could these issues be connected? Should I go back to the hospital?

View allI'm really worried because whenever I spit, there's blood, and it's been happening for the past week. I don't have a cough, but I do get a bit of chest pain. Plus, I often taste blood in my mouth. I'm a smoker and trying to quit. Do you have any idea what's going on or what kind of doctor I should see?
Your symptoms of blood in saliva, occasional blood taste, and chest pain, as a smoker, raise concerns for a possible underlying condition, such as: gum disease, tooth decay, or oral cancer; chronic bronchitis or pneumonia; or even lung cancer; consider consulting a: Pulmonologist

I've been having trouble with my breathing lately, constantly feeling like I need to take deep breaths and yawning all the time. Even small exercises leave me feeling really tired, and I've been dealing with anxiety too. It's getting hard to focus on my studies because of all this. What could be causing these symptoms, and how can I manage them?
It sounds like your symptoms might be linked to anxiety, which can cause shallow breathing, fatigue, and difficulty concentrating. Practicing deep breathing exercises, maintaining a consistent sleep schedule, and seeking help from a mental health professional could greatly improve your condition.

I've been experiencing this slight breathlessness for the past few days, like I constantly need to take deep breaths every few seconds. Occasionally, there's also a mild pain in my chest. I saw a local doctor who thinks it might be Air Hunger, maybe from exertion or anxiety, and he suggested I try some energy boosters. I'm a little worried it might be something more serious. Should I be more concerned or is this something not too serious?
do ECG AND CHEST X RAY to rule out serious issues
