I've been a bit worried because about 10 days ago, I had a fever for a couple of days right after my dad tested positive for COVID. I just assumed I might be positive too, so I quarantined myself. Now, I'm dealing with sinus issues, but most of the mucus has gone away and I've barely got any cough left. I got a chest X-ray yesterday, and I'm really concerned about whether I should be worried about pneumonia, especially since I had that brief fever and no real cough. What do you think?

View allI'm feeling this weird vibration in my right lower lung when I breathe, mostly at night when I'm trying to sleep. There's no pain, just this funny sensation. But sometimes if I take a deep breath or move a certain way, I get a sharp, needle-like pain. It's growing concerning, and I'm wondering what's going on. Can you shed some light on this?
The vibration and occasional sharp pain you feel in your lower lung could be due to muscle strain, mild inflammation in the pleura (lining of the lungs), or even trapped air in small airways. If it persists or worsens, consult a doctor for a thorough check-up to rule out any lung or musculoskeletal issues.

I've been dealing with a lingering cough thats been sticking around for a while. Lately, I've noticed I'm coughing up blood, which has me pretty worried. I did a sputum test for AFB and it came back negative, and I was prescribed some antibiotics. While the coughing up blood has decreased, it hasn't disappeared completely. What are some steps I can take to completely get rid of this blood in my sputum and the cough?
Patient is advised complete blood count,esr,C-reactive protein and chest x-ray pa view.

I've recently had an MRI and a sleep study, and my doctor started me on Leverage 500. They also mentioned using APAP or BiPAP if needed. I'm a bit confused about when I should actually start using APAP or if I should switch to BiPAP. How do I know which one is necessary for me? Can you help clarify this?
yes need to continue it
