I've been having trouble breathing from my chest lately, but I don't have any other symptoms or health issues. It feels like somethingmaybe some foodis stuck in my throat or chest, and it's making it hard for me to burp and breathe properly. Do you have any recommendations for a good medicine?

I'm trying to understand the results of my recent HRCT scan, which showed small fibrotic opacity in the right middle lobe. I'm not currently experiencing any health issues, so should I be worried about this finding? Is it something serious?
The HRCT report indicates a small fibrotic opacity in the right middle lobe, which suggests some scarring or fibrosis in the lung tissue. While this could be due to past inflammation or mild injury, it's important to monitor and follow up with your doctor for further evaluation to rule out any underlying conditions. It's not necessarily a serious issue, but it's worth discussing with your healthcare provider.

I've been dealing with some health issues after recovering from COVID-19. I tested negative back in November 2020, but I had pneumonia when I was positive. I've been under treatment for about a month with a reputed pulmonologist. My latest CT chest scan showed patchy ground glass haziness in the lower right lobe, and the CT severity score is 225. These days, I don't really have breathing problems or any major issues, but I feel a bit weak. Can you give me some advice on what I should do next or if there's anything I should be concerned about?
