I'm a bit concerned and curious about something. After having COVID a month ago, all my symptoms have gone away, and my SpO2 levels have been normal for a while. My chest X-ray came back normal too, which is reassuring, but I'm wondering if its still possible for there to be any fibrosis that wouldnt show up yet? Or does a normal X-ray mean everything's clear? Im just trying to understand what a normal X-ray really tells me at this point. I'm 34 and havent had any other symptoms.

View allI'm really worried about my mom. She's been coughing for a week, and after we went to see a physician, she was given pulmoclear tablets. But now, after taking them for two days, she's having trouble breathing and feels tightness in her chest. Could this be a side effect of the tablet? Theres no family history of asthma or any breathing issues, and she was perfectly fine before starting the medication. I read somewhere that breathing problems are a rare but serious side effect of pulmoclear. Could this be true?
It's possible that your mother is experiencing a side effect from Pulmoclear, as breathing difficulty and chest tightness can occur, though rarely. I recommend stopping the medication and contacting her physician immediately to discuss her symptoms and explore alternative treatments.

I'm really worried about my mom. For the last 67 months, she's been experiencing excessive yawning during the day. We've done all kinds of tests like chest x-ray, ECG, echo, TMT, and even basic blood work, but everything's coming back normal. She often mentions feeling like there's air stuck in her left chest, and yawning seems to give her some relief. Sometimes she even has chest pains. Could you help us figure out what's going on?
Pulmonologist opinion is advised to the patient.

I'm a bit concerned about this white spot that showed up on my chest x-ray about 25 days ago. It was on my left upper lobe lung area. My doctor had me on antibioticsclindamycin and moxifloxacinfor three weeks, and the spot seems to be getting smaller and less noticeable. I'm wondering if I should keep taking the antibiotics until the spot is completely gone. The doctor said it was a patch from a previous infection. Does this mean it's benign since it's not getting bigger, just shrinking?
no need of continuation of antibiotics. it will heal on its own
