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 really worried about my grandfather. He's 75, and with his COPD and asthma, his breathing has become pretty challenging. There are these sounds when he breathes, and he seems to breathe from his stomach. Even just a little movement seems to make his breathing worse. It's like he can't be without oxygen at all now. His oxygen level is at 75, and carbon dioxide is 50. Could you help me understand what stage he's in?

Hey, I'm wondering about using a nebulizer for someone with an oxygen level of 92-93% without a mask. The doctor mentioned Duolin and Budecort. Should these be mixed together when using the nebulizer or should they be administered separately?
You can mix Duolin and Budecort in the nebulizer, as they are often used together to help with breathing. However, it's important to follow your doctor's instructions on the exact doses and timing. If his oxygen levels are 92-93 without the mask, it might be worth monitoring closely and considering supplemental oxygen as advised by the doctor.

I'm getting really worried because it's been a month since I caught COVID-19. I was admitted to the hospital on April 23 and discharged on April 28. Lately, I've noticed that about ten days after coming home, I started experiencing sudden drops in my oxygen levels and breathlessness, but only while I'm sleeping. During the day, my oxygen levels are between 95 and 98, which seems normal, but at night they can drop to 80 or even lower. This happens even when I sleep in a prone position. Is this something like Happy Hypoxia? I really need some guidance and help with this.
it is hypoxia ,kindly do chest xray
