I recently tested positive for COVID-19 on April 16th and after treatment, I got a negative result on May 8th. However, I'm now experiencing some breathing issues. My average O2 saturation levels are around 97-98. Should I be considering any kind of scan or is there something specific I should be doing?

Ive been dealing with this dry cough for the last 20 days and even after taking some medicines, it just wont go away. Im really worried and unsure what to do next. Could you give me some advice or suggest what might be going on?

Persistent dry cough may require a different approach. You can try taking Benadryl (Diphenhydramine) 25mg every 6 hours as needed for cough. Additionally, you can use Robitussin DM (Dextromethorphan and Guaifenesin) 10ml every 4-6 hours as needed for cough. Make sure to stay hydrated and consider using a humidifier to help soothe your throat.

I'm dealing with some annoying allergies that started yesterday, and now whenever I'm in cold air, I can't stop sneezing. I took Allegra last night, and thankfully, the sneezing has lessened today. However, when I cough, I feel a pain in my rib cage. Is this something I should be worried about? For some context, I had a moderate case of COVID about six months ago and my lungs were affected back then.

I'm having a tough time with my breathing; it's been going on for about a year now. I'm pretty sure it's not asthma, but the symptoms feel like itchest congestion and this incomplete feeling when I breathe. I also deal with constant allergies, like my nose is always running and I sneeze a lot. My family doctor recommended Moncel LC and mentioned something about a smaller rotahaler. Does this sound right, or should I try something else?

Continue tab montek LC ,orally for 14 days and seroflo rotahaler 2 puffs sos for breathing difficulty.
