Good morning doctor, my grandma had cataract surgery about 10 days ago, and before that, she was dealing with asthma and pleural effusion. Lately, shes experiencing some hoarseness when she breathes. Were considering using a nebulizer with budecort for her. Do you think that would be okay?

Question

I'm feeling really worried because I've had symptoms like a fever around 100F, a lot of coughing, and this weird pressure on the left side of my chest and back for the last four days. I've stayed at home, isolated myself, and took a COVID test, but I don't have the results yet. I also have asthma and allergies to dust and smoke. Could you please suggest what precautions to take and if there's any medication I should consider?
