I've been having some health issues lately that I'm getting pretty worried about. Last September, I had ear pain, a throat infection, and a cold. After visiting a doctor, I went through a round of antibiotics - Taxim O, Cheston Cold, Chymoral Forte, and Ciprofloxacin drops. Everything seemed to clear up, but then about a month later, I got a really bad throat infection again. The doctor then prescribed Yofix Az 250 mg Cefixime, Azithromycin, Chymoral Forte three times a day for a week, along with Syrup Gryllinctus for a wet cough and Betadine gargling. The throat thing cleared up after about 15 days, but now I'm dealing with something concerning. I cough up black phlegm, mostly in the mornings, and sometimes theres a tiny hair in it, plus Im having this slight feeling of breathlessness. Drinking hot water with honey and turmeric or apple cider vinegar seems to help a bit, but I'm still really anxious about it. With the whole lockdown and corona situation, I havent been able to make it to a doctor in person. What should I do?

View allI'm having trouble with shortness of breath, and it feels like I can't exhale properly. I keep yawning a lot, and it only helps for a while. I've had a chest X-ray, ECG, and CBC, and everything came back normal. My blood pressure and oxygen levels are fine too. I don't have asthma or pneumonia, but my eosinophils count is a bit high at 8.6 when the range is 0-6.0, though the absolute count is within the range. This breathing thing happened before but didn't bother me as much. I've seen a cardiologist and a general physician, and they've said it's due to anxiety, but I can't wrap my head around anxiety causing this all day and night. Do you have any suggestions on what might be going on or what I can do to get some relief?
anxiety- do meditation regularly

I've been dealing with a really bad cough lately, and I've noticed it's sometimes causing strain on a major vein in my left leg. It even hurts occasionally. Should I be worried about this?
If the pain in your leg is mild and seems related to the coughing itself, it may be a temporary strain or discomfort. However, if the pain is severe, accompanied by swelling, redness, or other unusual symptoms, it's important to seek medical advice to rule out more serious conditions like varicose veins or deep vein thrombosis.
