I've been dealing with asthma and currently, Im using inhaled corticosteroids for it. I dont have any other health issues going on, so I'm wondering if it's safe for me to get the Covishield vaccine. Is there anything I should be worried about with the combination of the vaccine and my asthma treatment?

I'm having this cough issue for about 23 days now. It feels like my heart's going to jump out every time I cough, and it's always a dry cough with absolutely no spit. I'm starting to get really concerned. What could this all mean? Could it be something serious?

It sounds like you're experiencing a dry, non-productive cough, which can be caused by irritation in the throat or airways. If you're feeling chest discomfort or tightness when coughing, it's important to consult a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying issues, especially if it's persisting for a few days. In the meantime, staying hydrated and using a soothing cough suppressant may help.

My mom got over COVID about a month and a half ago, but her oxygen level is still around 93-95. Should I be worried about this? Do you think I should get her checked by a pulmonologist, or is there a chance she'll just get better on her own in the next couple of months? Before COVID, she had some dust allergies and would often cough, vomit, and sometimes have trouble breathing when going up stairs. What do you suggest I do?
