I've been having this sudden trouble with my breathing, like my chest feels tight and it's hard to get a good breath in. I'm not asthmatic, but would using an inhaler be a possible solution to help me breathe easier?

I got over a mild case of COVID last month and it lasted about 34 days. However, it's been over two weeks since then, and I'm still getting these bouts of dry coughing. It's not all the time, but it's still happening now and then. There's no cold or runny nose with it. Any idea what's going on or what I can do about it?

I'm really struggling with my breathing lately. I've got this constant congestion in my chest, and it's there all day long. It's so bad that even yawning is tough. When I lie down at night, I feel like I'm choking and can't sleep. I saw a pulmonologist who thought it might be an allergy, and I've been taking the meds he gave me, but nothing's changing. Do you have any advice on what I could try next?
