I've been dealing with shortness of breath for the past year, and it's getting worse lately. It's gotten to the point where I'm out of breath just walking around my house. What could be causing this, and is it something I should be worried about?

I've been having a lingering cough, mucus, and this annoying chest pressure ever since I recovered from COVID about two months ago. It's really bothering me, and I'm not sure what to do about it. Should I see a doctor, or is there some over-the-counter medication that might help?

Syrup salbutamol 10 ml orally thrice daily is advised to the patient.

I've been dealing with breathlessness and had a fever back in 2016. The doctor put me on seroflo 250 capsules for whenever I get breathless. Luckily, it's only happened once a year in the winters, and I found out its because of cold air or dust. I've been doing okay for about 2 years now without any problems. Do you think I should be worried about this happening again in the future? Should I still keep any medications handy just in case?

carry medication and take when symptoms exacerbated
