View allI'm a bit worried because it's been a month since I had COVID, and now I'm experiencing breathing issues. Its strange because when I tested positive, I didn't have any breathing problems at all. Do you know why this might be happening now?
there might be chest congestion, if it is too much difficulty of breathing do chest xray

I'm really worried about my mom. She seems to have some sort of lung issue because she's feeling fatigued a lot and has trouble breathing even just walking short distances or using the stairs. She had pleural effusion about three years ago, and now the symptoms seem to be coming back. Can you suggest what tests she should get to figure out what's going on?
Sputum for AFB,microscopy and x-ray chest is advised to the patient.

I'm really worried about my husband. After having COVID, he's been diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis, and his CT scan shows about 40-50% damage. Is there a better treatment available for this condition, and is it possible for him to fully recover? What complications should we be prepared for? He's currently using oxygen support at night, and his SpO2 level is around 93. How long might it take for him to improve?
do breathing exercises and regularly follow up to consult
