Question 1

I'm feeling a bit worried about my health right now. After having a fever, I tested positive for Covid on November 19th and started with medication from a govt doctor. A few days later, I consulted a private doctor who suggested a CHET Test HRTC, and I've just received the results. It says there are multi-focal small ground glass opacities in my lungs, predominantly on the sides and back. The CORADS is 6 and the CT severity score is 52.

Im currently on a few medications - Asthakind DX, Dexona 0.5mg, Scavista 12mg, Esoga cap, Immugard, Calpol 650mg, and doing mobilization with Budecort 1mg. I'm just not sure if my report is good or if the meds are doing their job. I've started to experience chest pain and weakness. My current SPO2 is 98, pulse rate is 85, and my temperature is 98.6. Could you advise on my health and how my report looks?

Accepted Answer

Based on your CT scan showing multi-focal ground glass opacities, it's important to monitor your condition closely, especially with ongoing chest pain and weakness. Your medications, including Asthakind DX, Dexona, and others, seem appropriate for managing symptoms, but it's crucial to follow up with your doctor regularly to ensure you're recovering well. Keep monitoring your oxygen levels and seek immediate care if symptoms worsen. Your SPO2 of 98% is a positive sign.

Question 2

I'm really worried because I tested IGG positive in July and had an unknown fever in June. Now I'm experiencing a burning sensation in my chest and stomach, and sometimes it's a bit hard to breathe. I also feel dizzy all day and can't seem to have a restful night's sleep. I read somewhere that people could have lung issues after having COVID. Can you please advise on what might be going on?

take tab pantop 40mg for 3 days

Question 3

I've had a persistent cough for the past three years along with frequent throat infections and mouth ulcers. I recently had sinus surgery, but the cough hasn't gone away. What could be causing this, and is there anything else I should look into?

Accepted Answer

Also called upper airway cough syndrome, postnasal drip is a common cause of a long-lasting cough. Allergies, viruses, dust, chemicals, or inflammation can irritate your nasal membranes and trigger runny mucus that drips out of your nose and down your throat. This makes you cough, especially at night when you lie down

it might be due to your bowel disturbances, take tablet pantop for 3 days
