I've been recovering from COVID for about 7 months now, and my CT score initially was 12 right after, but it dropped to 7 a few months later. I recently checked my SpO2 while lying down with my head on a pillow, and it was around 95-96, but when I sat in a chair, it was 98. Plus, I'm able to walk about 3-4 km daily without any issues. Is there anything serious I should be concerned about here?

Question

I'm really worried about my mom. She's 60 and has been having shortness of breath (SOB) when she's stressed. The doctor found moderate lung restriction from her PFT report and gave her a Butamate 400 inhaler to use for 8 weeks. All her other test resultsblood work, ECG, echo, and x-raycame back normal. Im just wondering if the inhaler is something shell need to use forever or if this is just a temporary thing?

Question

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.
