Question

I'm having this weird struggle with breathing, almost like I'm suffocating. It feels like my lungs aren't getting enough air. I haven't had any fever or cough, but it's been going on for a week now. My pulse is usually kind of fast, around 90. Is there any way to fix this?

Weve been using amoxicillin for the past 56 days, but the recent x-ray still shows no improvement. Should we consider getting a CT scan? How can we tell if its COVID pneumonia or just regular pneumonia? Are there specific tests to differentiate between the two? Is amoxicillin the only medication we should be taking for either type of pneumonia?

Question

I'm worried because my father has tested positive for COVID-19. We did a CT scan, and it shows CORADS5. He's on medication and in home isolation right now. The thing is, he only has a cough. Does this mean it's a mild symptom, or should I be more concerned? What steps should we be taking?
