View allI'm trying to wrap my head around this whole smoker's cough thing. I quit smoking about a month ago, but now I'm dealing with this annoying cough, some wheezing, and it's slightly hard to breathe sometimes. Any idea how long these symptoms will stick around? Are there any home remedies I can try, or do I need to go for medication? I was at 12 cigarettes a day for 12 years, so I'm kind of worried. What do you think?
first stop smoking, take treatment

I've been having trouble with my breathing for a while now, and I'm getting worried. I'm 22, female, and I have hypothyroidism. My nose bone is a little big too. For the past year, I've been dealing with this constant heavy feeling in my chest while breathing, congestion in my nose, and chest pain. It even makes me feel a bit dizzy sometimes. Do you have any idea what could be causing this, and what I should do about it?
check DNS AND chest x ray

I've been noticing these weird gelatin-like balls whenever I cough, and they come in different colors. I'm also experiencing some chest tightness and wheezing. What could be causing this, and is it something serious I should be worried about?
Coughing up clear jelly balls may be caused by a buildup of mucus in the airways. This may occur due to allergies or infections such as common colds or flu, accompanied with dehydration. If symptoms continue for more than a few weeks, it is best to contact a doctor to find out the cause and get treatment. If the color of the mucus resembles yellow or greenish mucus, it may be indicative of a bacterial infection, which may require antibiotic therapy.
