My brother's CT scan shows a COVID pneumonia severity score of 18 out of 25, and it's marked as CORADS 5. He's been on several medications since May 3, 2021, including Nintena 100, Happi D, Wysolone 20, and some antibiotics like Microcef O and Sazidox. Prednisolone seems to be a part of it too, and I'm worried about the combination and if we're missing anything. Could you help me understand if all these meds are right for his condition and if there's anything else we should be doing for him?

I've been diagnosed with covid and my CT score was 25, and my scan showed a 225 pt infection in the upper right lung. I've been on medication like ivermectin, clavum, mondeslor, zincovit, limcee, and dolo for the past three days. Ive also been doing steam inhalations three times a day and drinking hot lemon water and kadha. Now, Ive started coughing and my oxygen levels are around 98-99, plus I'm feeling a little short of breath. I dont have a fever though. Do you think I should start taking a steroid like medrol, or should I stick to my 5-day treatment plan with cough syrup and steam inhalation for now to see if things get better?

continue the treatment you will be fine

I'm dealing with a blocked nose and a cough that I've had for a few days, but now I'm noticing some blood in my cough. Should I be concerned about this, and what type of doctor should I see?

It could be due to various reasons such as a respiratory infection, bronchitis, or even more serious conditions like pneumonia or tuberculosis. I recommend you to consult a Pulmonologist for further evaluation and management.
