I've been feeling this pain on the right side of my chest whenever I take a deep breath or sneeze. It's been going on for about two months, and sometimes it feels mild, but other times it's sharp. Plus, it hurts more when I do anything physical. The pain even goes up to my right shoulder and back. I don't have a cough or sore throat or anything like that, just this weird pain. What do you think it could be?

I'm a bit concerned because I've had this cough for about 10 days now. It switches between being dry and wet, and recently, I've started having some abdominal pain when I cough. Could this be something serious? What should I do about it?

I'm trying to understand the readings on my oximeter. Sometimes, within 5 seconds, it shows a reading of 97 or 98, but other times it takes 15 or 20 seconds to give a reading. Also, it occasionally shows a very low value like 90 at first and then jumps to 96 or 97 after a few seconds. On the flip side, it might start at 98 and then go down. I'm seeing a range from 90 to 98. Is this kind of fluctuation normal? Which reading should I actually consider? Would appreciate any insight into this!

while you use pulse oximeter, record for few minutes and then consider the value which is recorded after 1 min

I'm having a really tough time with chest congestion, breathing issues, and a persistent cough, especially with the change in seasons. I also have allergies to dust. I've been using anti-allergy tablets regularly along with an inhalerEsiflow and Duolin. My local doctor thinks it might be bronchial asthma or COPD. I'm just desperate for a solution that can give me a better quality of life. Could you provide some guidance on what I should do next?
