Question 1

I recovered from COVID on August 17, but I'm now dealing with chest congestion, mucus, and a cough with wheezing sounds. I've also noticed some fungal issues in my ears. Is this normal post-COVID, or should I be worried about these symptoms? What steps can I take to feel better?

Question 2

I'm having this nagging minor chest pain that's been going on for about 6-7 months, mostly when I'm coughing or turning from side to side in bed. It doesn't bother me when I'm just sitting or walking around. About six months back, I saw an MD, and ECG results were normal. Later, I had an ear infection and visited an ENT who found my IgE level really high and put me on antibiotics and Montelukast tablets, which I finished a couple of months ago. But the chest pain is still there. I asked my doctor for more tests, and they suggested a CT chest scan. The report mentioned small ground glass opacities. I'm kinda worried now  could this be something serious? Is my chest pain related to these findings, and what's the next step for treatment?

Accepted Answer

there might be inflammation of lungs, kindly consult a pulmonologist
