I've had this wet cough for about a month now, and it seems to get worse at night. I've tried a couple of different cough syrups, but they haven't really helped. Should I be worried? What else could be causing this, and what can I do to get some relief?

View allI'm really concerned about this chest pain I'm experiencing. I've been dealing with allergic bronchitis and phlegm buildup for about 2 years now. I've been using inhalers, and my chest X-ray looks fine, but I just can't figure out why my chest is still hurting. Could there be something I'm missing?

I'm worried because my mom's oxygen levels drop when she sleeps. The doctors mentioned that her lungs aren't expelling enough oxygen when she breathes out. She's 67 years old, weighs 95 kg, and is about 5 feet tall. Do you have any advice on what we can do to help her?
Your mother's condition, known as sleep-related hypoxemia, may be related to obesity-hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) or sleep apnea, given her weight and age; consider consulting a pulmonologist or sleep specialist for a thorough evaluation, including a sleep study, and potential treatments like continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy, oxygen supplementation, or weight loss strategies to improve her oxygen levels and overall health.

I'm a regular weed smoker, and I've noticed lately that I'm coughing up bloody mucus. I'm pretty sure it's from my smoking habit. I think I might have bronchitis because the symptoms match up. Even before I started smoking, I used to cough every morning when I woke up. I've tried to cut back and even quit smoking. Can you tell me the best way to deal with this? Any remedies I should know about?
quitting smoking is the first and foremost thing you need to do. and then consult a pulmonologist for detailed evaluation. blood in sputum is not a small thing. don't ignore this further.
