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?

View allI'm trying to figure out if I should be worried about the side effects I'm experiencing. I started using seriflo250 as my pulmonologist prescribed due to some bronchi problems. I had a dry cough before, but now Im coughing more with sputum, and I suddenly got a runny nose, mild headache, and a fever around 100F. I used to smoke for about three years too. Is this normal, or is this something I should be concerned about?
It sounds like the medication is starting to open up your airways, which can sometimes lead to increased coughing and mucus production as your lungs begin to clear. However, the fever, headache, and worsening symptoms might indicate an infection or a reaction. It's important to contact your pulmonologist to discuss these new symptoms, especially considering your smoking history.

I'm currently working at a thermal power plant where I'm regularly exposed to a lot of dust. During the summer, I experience some mild breathing issues, but it gets worse in the winter when my nostrils and chest feel completely blocked. Do you have any suggestions for managing or preventing this?

My dad just turned 50, and even though he's fully vaccinated, he tested positive for COVID yesterday. His oxygen levels are reading 93-94, and since he has asthma, Im worried. Is it normal for his oxygen levels to be like this? Could it mean there's an infection in his lungs? Would doing some breathing exercises help him get his SpO2 levels back up?
