Brief Answer:
Few possible causes

Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome to HCM.

It is good that finding are fine and this all may be caused by anxiety.

However some disorders may not be seen on X-rays. I don't think you need to be concerned at this point, better to drink more fluids,take menta tea and rest.

If symptoms progress then you may need to visit a Pulmonologist to get checked-up thoroughly and also to decide whether you need a bronchoscopy or not.

Wish you good health.
Regards
