I've had an x-ray done today, and it shows that my diaphragm is a bit elevated. I dont have a cough, but I'm feeling some chest pain on the right side when I take a deep breath. I'm a bit worried and am wondering what could be causing this. I don't smoke and I've never had asthma. Do you think this pain will go away on its own? What other issues could this possibly be?

there might be variuos reasons for elevated diaphragm, but seeing your symptoms it might be related to increased liver size, check your bilirubin levels

View allI'm really worried because this morning, while I was brushing my teeth, I coughed really hard and noticed blood in my spit. It looked like clotted blood, thick and red. And the more I coughed, the more blood came up, which wasnt happening yesterday. I had my last meal at midnight because of work. Could you help me figure out why Im seeing blood when I cough in the morning?
That could be due to trauma while brushing.check if its happening the next day also,if it happens so,visit ENT doctor for appropriate management

I'm trying to figure out if I might have asthma because ever since I had COVID back in January, I've been experiencing these weird episodes. For about 10 minutes at a time, I feel this deep wheezing vibration in my right lung when I breathe deeply. Its especially noticeable in the mornings, and sometimes its even audible, kind of like snoring. I can feel it throughout my right chest, both front and back. These episodes started about five months ago and while they were irregular at first, they're happening more often now. Sometimes, coughing can start or stop these episodes, but it usually stops them. Ive got POTS and no known lung issues, although I've had pneumonia a few times as a kid and tend to catch colds and coughs easily. Does this sound like asthma or something else I should be worried about?
do chest x ray

I'm starting to feel concerned because I keep getting this urge to take deep breaths every now and then, but I'm breathing normally in between. It's been happening for about 15 days now, and I'm not sure what's going on. Can you help me figure out what's happening?
it is quite normal , no need to worry. start taking deep breaths in between your work breaks
