Question

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been battling COVID since the start of April, and while she was officially diagnosed on the 7th via an RTPCR test, she's had all sorts of symptoms like fever, loose motion, cold, dry cough, chest pain, and even some trouble breathing. We did a chest CT scan and an echo test before the RTPCR, and those showed moderate pneumonia with a CT score of 925. After getting treatment in the hospital with stuff like multivitamins, vitamin C, doxycycline, ceftriaxone, pantoprazole, and enoxaparin injections for 6-7 days, she seems better and she's been discharged. But now she's still having a bit of a cough and some loose motion, like 2-3 times a day. I'm really keen to know what kind of post-COVID treatment or tests she might need. What should we be careful about while she's recovering? Is there anything specific we should watch out for or any medications she should continue with?
