I'm really worried because I feel like there's water in my lungs. It's leading to really bad chest pain and pain in my lung area. I'm also finding it really hard to breathe. Could this be something serious? What can I do about it?

What can you make of my mom's recent X-ray? She's 60, and after testing positive for COVID antibodies 18 days after her first symptoms, the new X-ray shows some prominent bronchovascular markings with a patchy non-homogeneous opacity in the left lower zone. It also mentions something about a bulky right hilum with calcified lymph nodes. Should I be worried about these findings?

So my dad caught covid pneumonia back in February and his CT score was 1925. He was in the ICU for a month and after he got better, his oxygen levels were around 96-97. But now, for the last couple of weeks, he's been dealing with a dry cough and a low-grade fever. We did a covid test and it came back negative, but a urine test showed a bacterial infection. He's on niftran 100mg for that. My concern is that his dry cough has turned into a chesty cough, and for about 45 days, his oxygen levels have been fluctuating between 88-93. With oxygen support, he can maintain 98. The doctor recommended pirfenex200 for fibrosis and I have an X-ray report attached. Is there any medication or treatment you can suggest for the chesty cough?

the tablet given by doctor is good. kindly follow the same medicine

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?

do chest x ray and consult pulmonologist
