I've had some cold symptoms like fever, sweats, chills, and a cough. Most of them have gone away, but my cough and chest pain are still there. The chest pain is only on one side and it feels like a burning sensation. Should I be worried about this?

I've recently been diagnosed with COVID-19 and while the fever, diarrhea, and vomiting are gone, I'm really worried about some new symptoms. I'm dealing with severe chest pain, chest tightness, and breathing problems. Right now, I'm on mechanical oxygen support at home. My PT and D-Dimer plasma levels are pretty high, and there's a concern about pulmonary embolism. I've been having excessive sweating for the past two months, leg cramps, and some occasional swelling, which is concerning me even more. My chest X-ray came back clear, but I read that X-rays might not always catch a pulmonary embolism. Could you tell me what I should do next and what would the treatment be if it is a pulmonary embolism?

Hey, I've got a question about my dad's asthma treatment. He's been consistently using the Seroflo 125 inhaler and taking a montelucast tablet every night. We're thinking about adding AB FLO N to help manage his asthma better. How effective might that be and what's the appropriate dosage?
