Probably imagination is reaching very high or internet reading is confusing you. Meet your obstetrician or Chest specialist and explain your complaints.

Difficulty in breathing, tiredness, coughing, chronic expectoration.
The best way is to consult a doctor and take proper check up.
The longer you try to avoid the more disease become deeper and difficult to cure..

Oral submucous fibrosis is a precancerous condition. It means it provides a fertile ground for cancer. So if you have been diagnosed with OSMF better you get your white patch biopsy or scrape cytology done after proper consultation with your treating dentist. And stop any tobacco products.

Fever with cough with weight loss is a typical symptom for Pulmonary tuberculosis and it is a contagious disease and usually destroys the normal epithelium if not treated in time
