I've been having a cold for the last couple of days, and now Im dealing with some breathing issues. My chest feels really dry and kind of congested, like it's hard to breathe and I'm a bit suffocated. Should I be worried about this, or is it just a normal part of having a cold? What should I do to feel better?

View allI've been dealing with a covid infection and got my tests done. The fever's gone down, but now I'm struggling with a congested chest that makes it really hard to breathe. I'm in home isolation and following my doctor's treatment plan, but this chest congestion and cough are just making it so tough to breathe. Do you have any advice on how to ease this congestion?

I'm really worried about my mom. She's 59 and has been dealing with this intense pain in her inner ribs. The doctor we saw recommended an X-ray, and the results showed something like inhomogeneous opacity in both upper zones and something called febrocity. Can you help me understand what all of this means? Is it something serious?

I was hoping to get some advice about my recovery. I had a negative antigen test on August 25th, but by the 27th, I started having fever and weakness, and then on the 29th, I experienced breathing issues. After going for a HRCT on August 30th, it showed Co Rad 4, and I got admitted the same day. I went through a week of treatment with Remedesivir, Meropenam, and Azithromycin, among other things. After being discharged 10 days ago, I took a 5-day course of Fluvir and some other medicines. Now, my pulse and oxygen levels are stable, but I'm still feeling weak. Do you think I need to take any medicine for the weakness, or should I talk to a doctor about it? Is this kind of weakness normal after such treatments?
