I'm a bit worried because it's been two months since I tested positive for COVID, and now I'm experiencing breathlessness for the past four days. The doctor mentioned there's some infection in my chest. Do you think I should see a cardiologist, or should I stick with the current treatment plan?

I'm experiencing this pain in my upper chest, especially when I breathe deeply, cough, sneeze, or laugh, but I don't have a fever. However, I've got this dry cough going on. This has been happening for about a week and a half now. I'm a regular smoker, maybe around 3 to 4 cigarettes a day. Could this be something serious, or is it linked to my smoking habits? What should I do?
The pain you're experiencing in the upper chest, especially while breathing heavily, coughing, sneezing, or laughing, could be due to inflammation or irritation of the muscles or tissues around the chest, often linked to a respiratory condition. The dry cough and your smoking habit may also contribute to this discomfort. It's important to monitor your symptoms, and I recommend consulting a healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation and appropriate management.

I'm dealing with a cough that comes with phlegm and a bit of a wheezing sound. I took a chest X-ray PA yesterday and I've attached the report. Can you tell me if everything looks normal?
