My dad got the second dose of Covishield and now he's having some symptoms like fever, body aches, and a mild cough. It's been 11 days, and even though he isolated himself and started taking Azithromycin and Ivermectin, he's still feeling pretty sick. His HRCT chest scan shows ground glass opacities and some consolidation, mostly in the basal and subpleural areas, with a severity score of 1125. His oxygen levels are around 94-97. I'm really worried, and Im not sure what to do next. What should our course of action be?

I've been having some issues with mucous and chest congestion lately. There's this white, jelly-like, and sometimes fibrous mucous coming from my lungs, and my chest gets tight around the left lower rib or in the center. Coughing it up usually helps with the tightness, but it's becoming concerning. Also, I wake up with bad breath and some upper back pain below my shoulders. I don't have a fever or breathing problems, but I'm dealing with acidity, heartburn, and flatulence. I'm wondering if these symptoms are connected and what I should do about them? Any advice would be appreciated.
Your symptoms suggest chronic bronchitis or a lingering respiratory infection, with the white jelly-like or fibrous mucus indicating a possible fungal or bacterial overgrowth; meanwhile, the acidity, heartburn, and flatulence may be related to gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), so consider consulting md medicine
