I've been hearing mixed things about steaming and its effectiveness for people affected by corona. Some sources like blogs and newspapers say it doesn't help at all, while debates on news channels and YouTube videos also suggest it's not beneficial. I'm really confused and concerned. Could you shed some light on whether steaming is actually useful for someone dealing with corona?

View allI'm really concerned about my wife. Back in 2020, she got Covid, and ever since then, she's been having these breathing issues. It's not constant but comes and goes, like she's fine for a few days, and then suddenly, she feels breathless with chest pain and heaviness. We've done all the testslike for asthma and chest X-raysand everything came back clear. We even tried an ayurvedic doctor who suggested it might be due to some cough in her chest, which he said was odd since the X-rays were normal. Strangely, his medicine seemed to help for a while. But now, the problem is back, and I doubt it's cough-related because she doesnt have a cold or fever. I'm at a loss and would really appreciate any suggestions or advice on what else we can do to figure this out. Could it be something post-Covid related that we're missing?

I'm really concerned about this issue I've been having. A couple of years ago, I was in a room with some agarbati burning, and after about an hour, I started having chest pain and an itchy nose, followed by shortness of breath. It took me a few days to recover from that, and ever since, I've noticed that I get the same symptoms if I'm around any smoke, like from agarbati or mosquito repellents. I saw a pulmonologist back then, and he gave me some meds that seemed to help over time, but he never said it was asthma. I'm wondering now if I've developed asthma or if these are just triggers since I feel fine otherwise. I'm a bit anxious because I'm about to take a flight soon, and I'm not sure how to handle it if something similar happens at such a high altitude. Could you give me any advice or insights on what I might be dealing with and how to prepare for the flight?
