I've had this cough for a week now, and despite using medicines and syrup, nothing seems to be helping. I'm starting to get worried. Why isn't it getting better? What should I do next?

View allI'm noticing my oxygen saturation levels bouncing between 95 and 98, and sometimes they shift between 96 and 97. Is this something I should be worried about? Is it considered normal for the spo2 levels to fluctuate this way?

I've been having trouble breathing for the last few months, and the mucus is really thick and white. After I eat, it gets a bit worse, almost like my chest feels heavy. I've already done a chest X-ray and a complete blood test, and everything came out normal. With the whole COVID situation, I can't really go to a hospital right now. Do you have any idea what might be going on or what I should do next?

I've had this issue with breathing for the past 15 to 20 years, and it's really been bothering me. Sometimes I can take a deep breath through my nose and mouth, but other times it feels like I just can't breathe deeply at all. My nose gets blocked frequently, and even after using Vicks, it opens up but doesn't quite give me that 'free' feeling of breathing. Also, when I sleep on my stomach, food often comes up to my throat, causing me to choke and wake up. My stomach feels bloated for hours as well. I've been told it might be anxiety, but I'm not sure. I can comfortably climb up to three floors, but anything more leaves me breathless. I've done an ECG, ABH test, BP check, and even a chest x-ray which showed some congestion but everything else was normal. Stress tests from six years ago were normal too, and I still struggle to understand what's going on. Could this really be anxiety, or could there be something else affecting my breathing?
Azeflo nasal spray is advised to the patient.
