I've been having this wheezing sound when I breathe for about a week now. I went to the doctor and got some medicine, but the problem hasn't gone away. Do you think I should be worried? Could there be something the doctor missed, or might there be another treatment I should try?

I've been dealing with a persistent cough for what feels like ages, like over a thousand years, and it's been seriously frustrating. I've visited countless doctors, but none of the treatments seem to work for me. I'm constantly dealing with a dry cough and a sore throat, and it just keeps cycling back.
