Question 1

I've been dealing with a cough that I had a couple of months ago, and while it seems to be gone now, I'm still having trouble with persistent mucus. Recently, I've started feeling some chest tightness and alternating mild to moderate pain. Just a few days ago, my throat was also bothering me. I'm really concerned about what's causing all these symptoms, especially during this lockdown. Any advice on what I should do?

Question 2

I'm having trouble breathing properly; I can only breathe through my mouth, especially when I'm lying down. I've done a COVID antigen test, and it was negative, but I'm still waiting on the RT-PCR results. The only symptoms I'm dealing with are leg pain and this breathing issue. My oximeter readings have been quite unstable, usually above 92 or 93, but sometimes dropping fastfrom 100 to 92. This morning, the reading on my left thumb was as low as 89 or 90, while other fingers showed 92 or 93. I don't have any other COVID symptoms, so I'm really worried about what's going on. Could you please tell me what I should do?

Question 3

I've been trying to quit smoking and managed to stop for a month, but I slipped back into having one cigarette a couple of times a week. Now whenever I do smoke, I feel this strong chest tightness and discomfort for a couple of days, and even hear a cracking sound in my trachea when I'm doing normal stretches. It's kinda freaking me out since I'm really trying to switch to a healthier lifestyle. Back when I was in the US, I used to take supplements like Glutathione, NAC, and Omega 3. Do you think those might help with what I'm experiencing, or should I be worried about something else?
