I'm really worried. I had covid a little while ago, and luckily it was pretty mild. But now I'm left with this persistent cough and this heavy feeling in my chest. Is this something normal to go through after recovering, or should I be more concerned about it?

View allI'm having a tough time with my wheezing tonight and I've got a Foracort inhaler with me, but I just realized that it's expired by three years. It's really late now, and there aren't any pharmacies open. Is it safe to use this expired inhaler to get some relief until I can see a doctor?

I'm having some issues with hilar prominence on the right side of my chest, and it's caused me to be considered unfit for a job in Oman. I'm pretty worried about it and wondering if there's any way I can address or reduce this issue. What steps should I take, and are there any treatments or lifestyle changes that might help resolve it?
Hilar prominence on a chest X-ray could indicate an abnormality in the lymph nodes or other structures in the chest. The hilar region is where the lungs' arteries, veins, nerves, and bronchi enter and exit. Both hilar should be similar in size and density on a chest X-ray. If one hilum is larger and denser than the other, it could indicate an abnormality.so consult pulmonologist or thoracic surgeon

I'm worried because it feels like my deep breaths aren't fully satisfying, even though my normal breaths seem okay. After 7 to 8 regular breaths, I feel like I need a deeper breath but it's incomplete. Plus, I'm feeling kind of weak, maybe even feverish, but I don't actually have a fever. Could you help me understand what's going on?
Ecg and x-ray chest is advised to the patient.
