Question 1

My dad has been Covid positive for about three weeks now, and he only had mild symptoms so far. But his recent X-ray shows a small pneumonic patch in the right mid and both lower zones. The doctor is suggesting a three-day injection course. Does this sound serious given his Covid status? His oxygen levels are still normal, so Im wondering if there's a specific treatment we should consider.

Accepted Answer

the medication given by doctor is sufficient.

Question 2

I'm curious and a bit worried about something that's been happening. Whenever I cough, I notice a clear liquid, almost like saliva, coming from my mouth. It's got this salty-sweet taste to it. It's not discolored like yellow or green, just clear, but I'm unsure what might be causing this. Can you help me understand what's going on?

Accepted Answer

it might be due to some infection ,try syrup ascoril

Question 3

I've been having this really odd experience where my oxygen levels are consistently around 98 to 100, and my blood pressure is at 12074, which seems normal. But at night, I often feel like I'm not getting enough air or like I can't breathe, even though the oximeter says I'm at 99 to 100. It'll wake me up, and it makes sleeping kind of an anxiety-riddled task because I'm worried about not being able to breathe even when I'm actually doing it. I talked to a doctor about it, and they had me do a chest x-ray and liver function test, which came back alright, and gave me some meds. Still, when I try to sleep, there's this constant fear of being short of breath, and, for like 10 to 15 seconds, I actually do feel breathless. Any advice on what might be going on?
