On 28 April, I felt mild covid symptoms, so I took basic COVID medicine for 5 days, but my test came back negative. I feel something heavy on my chest from the last 4 days, and from yesterday, sudden, unbearable chest pain started and ended after some time. I attached the medicine that I took.

Even after a negative COVID test, post viral symptoms or mild inflammation in the chest, like costochondritis, can occur. However, sudden chest pain must be evaluated urgently. Please visit a doctor to rule out heart or lung related issues.

Question

Patchy inflammation in both upper lobes as I was detected covid positive twenty days earlier. Now my report is negative but I still have some heaviness in the chest. CRP is 11.10 and IL6 is 23.58. Should I go for steroids as suggested by doctors or should I wait and manage with steaming and turmeric milk. Will I recover on my own?
