I've been dealing with this stubborn cough for about 6 months now, and I've noticed that I also get these sharp pains in my ribs and chest sometimes, as well as my back. Lately, every time I take a deep breath, I end up coughing and wheezing, which is really concerning me. Plus, Ive been getting headaches and feeling super tired all the time, no matter how much sleep I get. My other bones are starting to feel weak and ache a lot too. Do you think I should see a doctor for these symptoms? What could be causing all of this?

I've been having trouble with deep breathing for the past 20 days, and it's really freaking me out. Sometimes it's fine, but other times it comes with a pain that shoots into my back whenever I take a deep breath. I did see a gastroenterologist because I was also having stomach pain, and they mentioned something about stomach lining inflammation. Can you help me figure out what's going on and what I should do next?

Patient is advised pan d orally ,before food and syruo sucralfate 10 ml thrice daily for 14 days .

I'm kind of worried because my asthma symptoms have come back after moving to Chennai. I'm experiencing tiredness, shortness of breath, palpitations, and it's really hard to exercise. I was previously on momeflo and Foracort 200 about 5 years ago for a year and it helped keep things in control. Should I consider restarting these medications, or is there something else I should try? What would you suggest?
